Explanation

The correct sequence from North to South is Peshawar, Islamabad, Gujranwala, and Multan. Peshawar is the northernmost city among the options, located in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Islamabad, the capital, lies slightly to the southeast of Peshawar. Moving further south into the Punjab province, you first encounter Gujranwala, which is located in the upper Punjab region. Multan is situated much further south in the lower Punjab region. Therefore, option C accurately follows the geographical progression from the top of the map toward the bottom.
