B Correct answer
Explanation

The southern plateau (Deccan Plateau) experiences the highest temperatures during summer due to its inland location far from the moderating influence of the ocean, combined with direct solar exposure at lower latitudes. Coastal regions benefit from sea breezes, while northern hills have altitude-based cooling, and extensive plains may have some moisture moderation.
