Question

how is the Indian sub continent separated from the rest of asia

Answer 1

The Himalayan Mountains separate the subcontinent from the rest of Asia. While it is a distinct landmass, the Indian subcontinent is not large enough to be considered a continent. The Indian subcontinent is part of a tectonic plate that has been moving for more than 200 million years.
