Correctly Matched Pairs
1. Pir Panjal Range - Karakoram Range
The Pir Panjal Range is located in the Indian-administered state of Jammu and Kashmir, while the Karakoram Range is situated in the Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan. These two ranges are distinct geographical features and are not directly connected.
2. Dhauladhar Range - Himachal Pradesh
The Dhauladhar Range is indeed a part of the Himalayas and is located in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. This pair is correctly matched as the Dhauladhar Range is a prominent mountain range in Himachal Pradesh.
3. Nathu La Pass - Kumaun Himalayas
Nathu La Pass is located in the state of Sikkim and connects India with Tibet. It is not part of the Kumaun Himalayas, which are located in the northern part of the Indian state of Uttarakhand. Therefore, this pair is incorrectly matched.
4. Blue Mountains - Eastern Himalayas
The Blue Mountains, also known as the Nilgiri Hills, are located in the southern part of India, primarily in the states of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. They are not part of the Eastern Himalayas, which are situated in the northeastern part of India. Therefore, this pair is also incorrectly matched.
