A video is currently going viral on social media, by seeing which you will get an idea of ​​the creation of the Himalayas. India was an island. Then he approached Asia and collided with him. It is claimed that the Himalayas were created by this collision. You will get to see this entire story in a one minute video.

When did this process start?

India moved towards Asia 8.80 million years ago. India was then a huge island. At that time the world's tectonic plates were very small. When these plates started sliding, they started colliding with each other. It created Mahatapu. The Indian plate collided with the Eurasian plate. It must have created a very intense pressure.

The Tethys was a sea in place of the Himalayas

This pressure created a mountain range of high peaks. It is said that the Himalayas exist here today. There used to be a sea called Tethys. This sea was situated between Gondwana and Angarland. The ocean ends when India collides with the Eurasian plate. Here a high peak comes into existence due to the pressure.

Himalayas are 2500 km from west to east. claim to be

The process of forming the Himalayas began 4 to 5 million years ago. Subduction did not occur due to the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates. It means that no plates move under each other. At that time part of the land started rising straight up. Its length from west to east is about 2500 km. Its western bank lies near the northern bend of the Sindh river near the Nanga mountain. Its eastern bank lies west of Namcha Barwa i.e. Yarlung Tsangpo (Brahmaputra) river. The width of the Himalayas varies from place to place. Somewhere 150 km and somewhere up to 350 km.

10 peaks in the Himalayas more than eight km in height

The Himalayas stretch from Kashmir to Arunachal Pradesh over 2500 km long. If you look at the Himalayas from above, from the Nanga Mountains in the Indus Valley to the Namcha Barwa in the north-east, you will see this entire belt hanging towards India, like a bowl. These are the same Himalayas where 10 of the world's 14 peaks are taller than 8 km. The Himalayan Mountains were formed due to the compression of the Earth's uppermost layer i.e. the crust. If we look towards the north-west of the Himalayas, the thickness of the crust is 75 km in the Hindu Kush, Pamir and Nanga mountain regions compared to 60 km in Jammu and Kashmir. As much as
