Explanation:

All the statements are correct.
In the medieval period of Indian history the northern and the southern halves of our sub-continent came into closer contact. The Vindhya Mountains and the Deccan no longer acted as a barrier. This area became a bridge between the north and the south. This can be seen from three things in particular.
First, the kingdoms of the northern Deccan tried to spread their control as far as the Ganga valley.
Secondly, the religious movements of the south soon became popular in the north as well. For example, As Bhakti movement refers to the theistic devotional trend that emerged in medieval Hinduism and later revolutionised in Sikhism. It originated in the eighth-century Tamil south India and spread northwards.
Thirdly, many Brahmins from the north were invited to settle in the Deccan and the south and were granted lands
The kingdoms of the just continent were no longer cut off from each other as they had tended to be in the earlier period.
