➡◆<b><i><u>India has a variety of geo - physical features and landforms , viz- mountains,plateaus,plains,deserts,coastal plains and islands . These are the result of long geologically processes during millions of years </b></i></u>

<b><i><u> Formation of geological features and landforms of India can be easily understood by the PLATE TECTONIC THEORY </b></i></u>

<b><i><u> This theory discusses the various processes which are responsible for the formations of these landform features </b></i></u>

<b><i><u> The movement of the plates can be classified into three types : convergent boundary , divergent boundary and transform boundary </b></i></u>

<b><i><u> The oldest landmass was a part of Gondwana land which included India , Australia,south Africa , south America and Antarctica as one single land mass </b></i></u>

<b><i><u>The major physiographic divisions of India are - the Himalayas, the northern plains , the Peninsular plateau , the Indian desert , the coastal plains and the islands </b></i></u>

<b><i><u> The Himalayas mountain s are young fold mountains lactated in the northern part of India . They have the highest mountain peaks of the world </b></i></u>

<b><i><u>The Himalayas consists of three parallel ranges in its longitudinal extent , these are : Himadri or inner Himalaya s , Himachal or Lesser Himalayas and Shiwaliks. </b></i></u>

<b><i><u> The northern plains are formed by the alluvial soil deposited by the Himalaya rivers . They extend over a large area of India and can be divided into the Indus , the Ganga and the Brahmaputra plains </b></i></u>

&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt;The peninsular plateau is a tableland composed of crystalline , ingeous and and metamorphic rocks <br />It is one of the oldest landmass of the earth . &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt; It is separated from the coastal plains by Eastern and Western ghats . It consists of two broad divisions : Central highland and Deccan pleatue . &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt;The Indian desert is the vast sandy stretch of plain located in the western part of the country . &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt; The coastal plains are the narrow strips of the plains running along with coasts of India . These are wider along with the Eastern coast than , the western coast . &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt;Lakshadweep ,located in the Arabian sea , and Andaman and Nicobar , located in the bay of Bengal , are temwo group of islands in the Indian union . Lakshadweep is composed of small coral islands &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;
