The Malwa Plateau is a significant geographical region in central India. It is located between the Aravalli Range in the northwest and the Vindhya Range in the southeast. The plateau spans across parts of Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat.

Option 2, Chotanagpur Plateau, is not correct because it is located in eastern India, mostly in the state of Jharkhand. The Chotanagpur Plateau is known for its rich mineral resources and diverse tribal population.

Option 3, Deccan Trap, is also not correct. The Deccan Trap refers to a large volcanic plateau in southern India, encompassing the states of Maharashtra, Karnataka, and parts of Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu.

Option 4, Mahadeo Hills, is not correct either. Mahadeo Hills refers to a small hill range in Madhya Pradesh, mainly known for housing the famous Mahadeo Temple.

In conclusion, the correct answer is option 1 - the shaded area represents the Malwa Plateau.
