Explanation
The matching of peaks to their respective hill ranges is as follows: (I) Anaimudi is the highest peak of the Annamalai Hills (and the entire Peninsular plateau) at 2,695 m [3]. (II) Doddabetta is the highest peak of the Nilgiri Hills, standing at 2,637 m [3]. (III) Dhupgarh, with an elevation of 1,350 m, is the highest point of the Satpura Range, specifically located in the Mahadeo Hills near Pachmarhi [1]. (IV) Guru Shikhar is the highest peak of the Aravalli Range, reaching 1,722 m near Mount Abu. Therefore, the correct sequence matching List I to List II is (I)-4, (II)-1, (III)-2, and (IV)-3. This corresponds to option 3.
