Question

What are the proofs that himalayas were under the sea

Answer 1

Visual Evidences of Himalayan Formation

The Indian plate is continuously moving north at the rate of about 2 cms every year. Because of this reason the Himalayas are rising at the rate of about 5 millimeter per year. Even so, it is impossible to detect the movement of the plates and uplifting of the Himalayas by casual observation. But, even though we cannot visually observe the plates moving and the mountains rising, we can draw some of our own conclusions from observing rock formations and fossils from the past.
