Western Ghats are also known by which name?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Sahyadri

Direct answer: Option A, Sahyadri. The Western Ghats are a long mountain chain running roughly parallel to India’s western coast, and Sahyadri is another widely used name for them. Step by step: identify the mountain range along the west of the Deccan Plateau; match its alternative regional name; Western Ghats correspond to Sahyadri. Option A is correct. Option B, Himadri, refers to the Great Himalaya, the highest Himalayan range, not the Western Ghats. Option C, Purvanchal, refers to the eastern extensions of the Himalayas, not this western mountain chain. Option D, Terai, is a low, marshy belt along the Himalayan foothills, not a mountain range. The Western Ghats also influence rainfall by forcing moist winds to rise, but that fact is not needed to select the name. Memory cue: west coast mountain chain = Western Ghats = Sahyadri.
