Option 1: Vindhya range - Ajanta range - Satpura range - Palghat range

The correct sequence of mountain ranges while travelling from north to south is option 2: Vindhya range - Satpura range - Ajanta range - Palghat range.

Next, we come across the Ajanta range, known for the famous Ajanta Caves located in Maharashtra. Finally, we reach the Palghat range, which is located in the southern Indian state of Kerala.
