Deccan Plateau

The Deccan Plateau ( DEK-ən) or Peninsular Plateau, is a plateau that extends over an area of 422,000 km² (163,000 sq mi) on the southern part of the Indian subcontinent. The plateau forms the bulk of the Deccan Peninsula, and stretches from the Satpura and Vindhya ranges in the north to the northern fringes of Tamil Nadu in the south. It is bound by the Eastern and the Western Ghats mountain ranges on the sides, which separate the region from the Eastern and Western Coastal Plains respectively.
