Aravalli ranges, a well known feature of Rajasthan, runs in a __________ direction.
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Answer: C
The Aravalli range runs north-east to south-west.
The Aravallis stretch about 690 km in all, most of it diagonally across Rajasthan, from near Delhi in the north-east, through Khetri and Ajmer, to Mount Abu and on into Gujarat in the south-west. Guru Shikhar on Mount Abu is the highest peak.
Because the range lies parallel to the south-west monsoon winds, it does not block them, which is one reason western Rajasthan stays arid. The other directions given do not describe this diagonal alignment.
