Answer

Correct Answer

None

Explanation

Amarkantak lies at the confluence of the Vindhya and Satpura ranges (not Sahyadri). Biligirirangan Hills are part of the Eastern Ghats-Western Ghats junction, not the easternmost part of the Satpura Range. Seshachalam Hills are not the southernmost part of Western Ghats.
