Figure shows three points A, B and C in a region of uniform electric field \[\overrightarrow{E}\]. The line AB is perpendicular and BC is parallel to the field lines. Then which of the following holds good. Where \[{{V}_{A}},{{V}_{B}}\] and \[{{V}_{C}}\] represent the electric potential at points A, B and C respectively [CPMT 2004; MP PMT 2005]

A)            \[{{V}_{A}}={{V}_{B}}={{V}_{C}}\]

B)            \[{{V}_{A}}={{V}_{B}}>{{V}_{C}}\]

C)                    \[{{V}_{A}}={{V}_{B}}<{{V}_{C}}\]

D)                    \[{{V}_{A}}>{{V}_{B}}={{V}_{C}}\]
