"India is a peninsular country" Support this statement after explaining, what is a peninsular country?

Answer 1

Answer:

The Indian subcontinent, or simply the subcontinent, is a southern region and peninsula of Asia, mostly situated on the Indian Plate and projecting southwards into the Indian Ocean from the Himalayas. Geologically, the Indian subcontinent is related to the land mass that rifted from Gondwana and merged with the Eurasian Plate nearly 55 million years ago.[1] Geographically, it is the peninsular region in south-central Asia delineated by the Himalayas in the north, the Hindu Kush in the west, and the Arakanese in the east.[2]

A peninsula (Latin: paeninsula from paene "almost" and insula "island") is a piece of land that is bordered by water on three sides but connected to mainland.

India is called as Indian Peninsula because it is surrounded by the Indian ocean on the south, the Arabian sea on the west and the Bay of Bengal on the east
