The mountain ranges run parallel to the Bay of Bengal. The Deccan Plateau lies to the west of the range, between the Eastern Ghats and Western Ghats. The coastal plains, including the Coromandel Coast region, lie between the Eastern Ghats and the Bay of Bengal. The Eastern Ghats are not as high as the Western Ghats.

Answer 2

The Similipal Massif is the farthest northeast extension of the Eastern Ghats. The Garhjat Range is a northeastern prolongation of the Eastern Ghats. It extends from Mayurbhanj in the north-west to Malkangiri in the south-west.

The Eastern Ghats are a discontinuous range of mountains located along India's eastern coast. They extend from Odisha to Tamil Nadu. They pass through Andhra Pradesh and some parts of Karnataka. Four major rivers, the Kaveri, Krishna, Mahanadi and Godavari flow through it.
