The Himalayas were formed as a result of the collision between the Indian Plate and Eurasian Plate.

The Earth’s Lithosphere is broken into number of plates called tectonic plates. These plates were formed due to the convectional currents occurring under the surface of the Earth. The Indo Australian plate got separated from the Gondwana land and drifted towards the north.
As it drifted towards the north, it collided with the Eurasian Plate. As a result of this collision, the sedimentary rocks which were settled in the large scale depression in the Earth’s crust called Tethys were folded and formed the mountain system of western Asia and the Himalayas.
