$\huge \boxed{ \mathbb{ \ulcorner ANSWER: \urcorner}}$

✔️ according to the plate tectonics theory, a German researcher Alfred wegener found that there was only one land called Pangea and only one ocean called panthalassa.

✔️ the pangea was divided into two plates. the northern plate was called Angara land and southern part called Gondwana land.

✔️ the movement of the molten material below the earth crust caused the crust to break up into a number of large fragment called tectonic plate.

✔️ thus, leading to the drifting of the Indo – Australian plate after being separated from the gondwana land towards north.

✔️ the northward drift resulted in the collision of the plate with the much larger Eurasian plate.

✔️ due to this collision the sedimentary rocks which where accumulated in the geosyncline known as the tethys where folded to form a mountain.

✔️ hence, the Himalayan mountains formed.

Answer 2

Heya @Aryan846851!

Before I answer the question, I'd like to mention some points....

1. The formation of the various physical features of present world can be explain by the plates-tectonic theory. It says that the crust of the earth is formed up of seven major and several minor plates and the formation of the various present-day physical features of the earth are formed due to their movement.
2. What are physical features? Physical features refer to the various kinds of mountains, plateaus, plains, grasslands, river-basins etc...
3. India has mainly the following six physiographic divisions: The Himalayas, The Northern Plains, The Western Desert, The Central Highlands, The Coasts, and the Islands.

So, let's begin with the answer....

Q_ How were the Himalayas Formed??

Answer_ Millions of years ago, the earth consisted of all the continents as one single landmass known as the Pangea and all the water-bodies as one super ocean known as Panthalassa. The conventional currents (movement of the tectonic plates) split this super continent into two major landmasses- the northern landmass was called Angara Land and the southern part was called Gondwana Land. The conventional currents further split these two landmasses into various smaller landmasses. One such land mass of the Gondwana Land was the Indo-Eurassian Plate, which drifted towards the northeast can collided with the much-larger Eurassian Plate. This displaced the Tethys sea and the sea bed of this sea rose up to form up the huge Himalayas.

This is how the Himalayas were formed.....
