The Vindhyas belong to Block mountains. mountains are created when large areas or blocks of earth are broken and displaced vertically.

Fault-block mountains or block mountains are mountains that form when faults or cracks form in the earth's crust. These faults cause one section of earth to rise and others to be depressed causing block mountains. Block mountains are found in India, as well as other parts of the world including North America (Sierra Nevada Mountains) and Europe (Harz Mountains).

In India specifically the mountain ranges Satpura and Vindhya found in the central- western part of the Indian sub continent are block mountains, having formed through cracks in the earth’s crust, these ranges rose while the block of earth known as the Rift Valley depressed.

Explanation:

Technically, the Vindhyas do not form a single mountain range in the geological sense. ... Depending on the definition, the range extends up to Gujarat in the west, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar in the north and Chhattisgarh in the east. The Vindhyas have a great significance in Indian mythology and history.
