How were the northern plain formed for?
Answers
Answer:
The Northern Plain was formed by the deposits brought in by the three major rivers and their tributaries. Alluvium was deposited at the foot–hills of the Himalayas for millions of years. These deposits are now the fertile Northern Plains. Alluvium is soil or sediments deposited by a river or other running water.
ANSWER:
Formation of Northern Plain:
(i) The Indian Peninsula drifted towards the north
and finally collided with the much larger Eurasian plate.
(ii) This caused folding of the sedimentary rocks which were
accumulated in the geosynclines (known as
Tethys). This led to the formation of mountain systems of West Asia and
Himalayas.
(iii) The northern part of the Indian Peninsula got subsided due to the
uplift of Himalayas in the Tethys Sea.
(iv) That basin was filled with sediments from the river.
(v) The whole procedure led to the formation of a
flat land of alluvial soil, which is known as the northern plains of India.
