The Answer is given below

Explanation:

Himalayas were formed mainly by the movement of Indian plate from Gondwana land towards the Eurasian plate which leads to the subduction of Tethys sea.

This movement of Indian plate continues and around 25 million years these two plates (Eurasian and Indian plates ) touches each other and due to further movement with a STRONG FORCE gives rise to middle Himalayas or lower Himalayas with a large no of asymmetrical folds as a discontinuous range due to nappe structure between them
