Detailed Solution

The given statement is false.
The Deccan plateau lies to the direct south of the river Narmada. The river forms the plateau's boundary with the northern part of India. The plateau is a part of the Peninsular plateau and extends over the entire region of south India in a triangular shape. Bounded by the Western and the Eastern Ghats, the plateau points towards the south. The Vindhya-Satpura ranges bound the northern end of the plateau which has around 600 meters in elevation. The Krishna, Godavari, and Kaveri rivers drain the plateau as they move towards their draining point, the Bay of Bengal, from their origin in the Western Ghats.
The correct statement is the Deccan plateau lies to the direct south of the river Narmada.
