💡 Analysis & Explanation
Geographical Boundaries ▼
The expansive Thar Desert in northwestern India is naturally bordered by distinct topographical markers. It meets the Aravalli Range to the east, the Rann of Kachchh down south, and extends into the Indus River plain to the west.
Evaluating the Anomaly ▼
The Vindhya Range is a complex, discontinuous chain of mountain ridges situated significantly further south, deep in central India.
Spatial Disconnect ▼
Because of its distant central location, the Vindhya Range does not structurally enclose, touch, or serve as a boundary feature for the Thar Desert ecosystem.
Conclusion ▼
The Vindhya Hills are definitely not a surrounding feature.
