The Karnataka Plateau is associated with which large physical region?

Deccan Plateau

The Karnataka Plateau is a broad elevated region covering much of the interior of Karnataka. In the physical division of India, it is regarded as part of the southern Deccan Plateau, which occupies a large area of Peninsular India. The plateau contains varied hills, valleys, and relatively level uplands, and its general surface slopes eastward. Therefore, option A, Deccan Plateau, is correct. The Himalayan Plain is a low alluvial region built by rivers at the foot of the Himalayas. The Sundarbans is a deltaic and low-lying coastal region created by the Ganga–Brahmaputra system, while the Thar Desert is an arid area in north-western India. Their landforms and locations are different. The broad regional classification of Karnataka’s upland clearly places it within the Deccan Plateau.
