B. Satpura, Mahadeo, Maikal and Chhotanagpur
C. Maikal, Mahadeo, Satpura and Chhotanagpur
D. Satpura, Mahadeo, Chhotanagpur and Maikal

Explanation:

Geographically, moving from west to east in Central India, the Satpura Range is followed by the Mahadeo Hills (a part of the Satpura system), then the Maikal Range (the eastern extension of Satpura), and finally the Chhotanagpur Plateau further to the east. Therefore, the correct sequence is Satpura, Mahadeo, Maikal, and Chhotanagpur.
