Answer:

We breaking and drifting of Gondwanaland land are the two phenomena that occurred on the peninsular plateau during the creation period.

Explanation:

The peninsular plateau, which reaches the Gondwana continent, is the oldest land on Earth. Crystalline, igneous, and metamorphic rocks were used in their creation. Another name for it is tableland. There are circular hills all around it.

Black soils cover all peninsular plateaus. These soils are composed of volcanic material. Since dark soils make up most of the peninsular plateau, the formation took an extended period.

A tableland made up of ancient crystalline, igneous, and metamorphic rocks are known as the Peninsular plateau. Its creation is linked to the disintegration of the Gondwana continent. The crustal faulting and fractures on this Peninsular plateau result from several episodes of uplift and submergence. Due to its frequent seismic activity, the Bhima fault deserves special attention. The Peninsular plateau's relief has undergone some variability due to these geographical changes. The plateau's northwest features a rugged terrain of canyons and ravines. Examples of well-known ravines are those in Chambal, Bhind, and Morena. The Peninsular plateau may be classified into three main categories based on the notable relief features:

  • The Deccan Plateau
  • The Central Highlands
  • The Northeastern Plateau.

India's Deccan Plateau

The Satpura, Maikal range, and Mahadeo hills are to the north, the Western Ghats to the west, and the Eastern Ghats to the east. Different local names for the Western Ghats exist, including Sahyadri in Maharashtra, Nilgiri Hills in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, Anaimalai Hills, and Cardamom Hills in Kerala. Compared to the Eastern Ghats, the Western Ghats are higher in height and more continuous.
