What is the correct reason for identifying Nilgiri Hills as a junction of the Ghats?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They are linked with the meeting region of Eastern and Western Ghats

The Nilgiri Hills occupy the elevated area where the Western Ghats and Eastern Ghats approach and connect in southern India. The name Nilgiri refers to the hill region around the junction, and the area includes important peaks such as Doddabetta. This position explains why the Nilgiris are described as a meeting or junction region of the two major peninsular ranges. Ooty is a well-known hill station located in the Nilgiris, but the decisive geographical fact is the relationship between the Eastern and Western Ghats. Thus option B is correct. The Aravalli-Vindhya connection, the Ganga-Yamuna confluence, and the Karakoram-Ladakh relationship refer to entirely different regions.
