Detailed Solution

The eastward extension of the Chotanagpur plateau is drained by the river Damodar.
The Chotanagpur plateau lies in one of the Central Highlands. In India, the peninsular plateau is a tableland made up of igneous and crystalline rocks and consists of two major divisions: the Central Highlands and the Deccan Plateau. The platform is broad and shallow. A large portion of the Chotanagpur plateau is located in central Jharkhand and northwestern Chhattisgarh, as well as adjacent parts of West Bengal, Odisha, and Jharkhand. These regions have a high concentration of valuable minerals and resources, such as vast coal reserves in Jharkhand and Odisha.
