Answer:
Himalayas are not only major mountain system but also one of the most young fold mountains in this world
it extends from the knot of pamir in tanjikistan in the east whereas in india it extends from the states jammu and kashmir to assam
the himalayas is not a single montain system but there are many parallel mountain systems
the southernmost range are called the shiwalik hills or which is the youngest mountain range
next to shiwalik lies the lesser himalayas,greater himalayas [himadri] and then the trans himalayas [from south to north]
the himalayas are further divided into eastern himalayas[jammu and kashmir himalayas] central himalayas[kumaun himalayas] and western himalayas[assam himalayas]
