By which name is the Greater Himalaya known?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Himadri

The Greater Himalaya is the highest and northernmost of the three main parallel Himalayan ranges. It is commonly called Himadri. This range contains some of the highest peaks and remains snow-covered for much of the year. It also gives rise to many important Himalayan rivers through glaciers and snowfields. The name Himadri can be understood as the snowy mountain range, which helps distinguish it from the lower ranges.

Option C, Himadri, is therefore correct. Terai is a wet belt along the Himalayan foothills, not a mountain range. Bhabar is a porous gravel belt south of the Shiwalik foothills. Purvanchal refers to the eastern hills or extensions of the Himalayas. Since the question asks for another name of the Greater Himalaya, the answer must be the name of the highest parallel range, namely Himadri.
