Question

many geologists say that the rivers of himalayas are older than the himalayas themselves .Try to find out the reason behind this.

Answer 1

Explanation:

• The rivers Brahmaputra, Indus, Sutlej and Ganga etc., are precedent to all three Himalayan ranges as they crossed the Greater, Lesser and Outer Himalayan ranges.
• These rivers are thought to have been present before the Himalayan ranges were folded and elevated.

• These rivers retained their southern courses with the elevation of these ranges during the Tertiary Period by reducing their valleys in harmony with the pace of elevation.
• According to the geologists the Indus is an instance of a consequent stream, as consequent streams may have formed on the Himalayan southern slopes.

• Ultimately, the streams of the Himalayan southern hills might have caught the streams of the northern slopes and thus expanded their courses across the Himalayan ranges.
