A
Correct answer
Explanation
Tipu Sultan's military campaign into Kerala was halted at the Bharathapuzha River (also called Nila) in present-day Malappuram district. This marked the furthest extent of his advance during the late 18th century Mysorean invasions. The other rivers listed (Periyar, Pamba, Kalladay) are major Kerala rivers but were not the strategic limit of Tipu Sultan's campaign.
