Answer 1

Answer:

The Himalayan Mountains.

The Northern Plains.

The Peninsular Plateau.

The Indian Desert.

The Coastal Plains.

The Islands.

Northern Plains were formed by the sediments brought in by three major Himalayan rivers (Ganga, Indus and Brahamaputra) and their tributaries. When these rivers flowed through the Himalayas, they eroded rocks, transported and deposited the smaller fragments of rocks in the foothills of the Himalayas.
