PHYSICAL DIVISIONS

India our country, is gifted with a variety of landscapes– the lofty Himalayas, the Great Indian Desert, the Northern Plains, the Deccan plateau surface and the scenic coasts and islands. Because each of these landforms has a beauty of its own, it also adds to the physical diversity of the country. Let’s find out about each of these.

Himalayan Mountains

In the northernmost part of the country, the mighty mountain ranges of Himalayas stand as guards. These mountain run as three parallel ranges, namely-

The Greater Himalayas or Himadri, which boasts the world’s and India’s highest peaks

The Middle Himalayas or Himachal

The southern Himalayas or Shivalik Ranges.

Northern Plains

Right at the foothills of the Himalayas, are the vast Northern Plains. Due to the network of the largest rivers like Ganga, Indus, and Brahmaputra, these plain regions are rich in alluvial soil, and therefore, highly fertile. This helps is a heavy cultivation of crops. As a result, the Northern Plains have the maximum concentration of population.

Great Indian Desert

Another important feature of India’s physical landscape is the Great Indian Desert. It lies on the western end of the country in the state of Rajasthan and parts of Gujarat. Due to the hot and dry climate, there is very less vegetation in this region.

Peninsular Plateau

This triangular landmass lies to the south of the Northern Plains. With rugged and sloping landscape, the peninsula offers a number of hill ranges and valleys. The Aravalli Hills, for example, is one of the oldest ranges of the world, sits on the north-west side of the peninsula. Likewise, the Vindhya and Satpura mountains are the most noteworthy landscapes of the region, with Narmada and Tapi rivers flowing through them.

The entire Peninsular Plateau is bordered by the Western Ghats on the West and the Eastern Ghats on the east. While the Western Ghats is a continuous stretch of mountains, the Eastern Ghats are interrupted by plains. Furthermore, the entire plateau region is rich in minerals and metals.

Coastal Plains

The strips of lands along both the Western Ghats and the Eastern Ghats form the Coastal Plains. The western coast lies on the Arabian Sea and is narrow, while the eastern coast, along the Bay of Bengal, is much broader. The rivers Mahanadi, Godavari, Krishna, and Kaveri drain into the Bay of Bengal and form fertile deltas. The most noteworthy of all Indian deltas is the Sunderbans, in West Bengal, formed by Ganga and Brahmaputra and their tributaries.

Islands

Just outside the eastern and western coasts, there are two groups of islands, which also form an important feature of India our country. The Lakshadweep Islands are on the Arabian Sea, on the west, while the Andaman and Nicobar Islands lie on the Bay of Bengal, in the south-east.
