The correct answer is option 3, Ladakh Plateau. A plateau is a flat or gently sloping elevated area of land. The Ladakh Plateau is located in the northernmost part of India in the union territory of Ladakh. It is situated at an average elevation of about 3,500 meters (11,500 feet) above sea level. The Ladakh Plateau is known for its high altitude and extreme cold temperatures. It is surrounded by the Himalayan and Karakoram mountain ranges, which contribute to its high elevation. The Deccan Plateau (option 1) is not the highest plateau in India, although it is the largest. The Chota Nagpur Plateau (option 2) and the Baghelkhand Plateau (option 4) are also not the highest plateaus in India.
