Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Himadri northernmost and Great Himalaya

The Himalayan ranges are commonly described from north to south as the Himadri or Great Himalaya, the Himachal or Lesser Himalaya, and the Shiwalik or Outer Himalaya. Himadri is the highest and northernmost range, with many permanently snow-covered peaks. The Shiwalik is the southernmost and outer range, while Himachal lies between the other two.

Option A gives both correct names for the same range: Himadri is also called the Great Himalaya and is the northernmost Himalayan division. Therefore, option A is correct. Option B is wrong because Shiwalik is the outermost, not the northernmost, range. Option C reverses the position and uses an incorrect term, while Purvachal refers to the eastern hills rather than a western coastal plain.
