Question

How were the great plains of Northern India formed?

Answer 1

Hint:
The Indo-Gangetic Plain, also called as the Indus-Ganga Plain and the North Indian River Plain, is a fertile plain of 2.5-million km2 covering areas north of the Indian subcontinent, in which most of northern and eastern India.

Complete step by step solution:
The northern plains is composed of alluvial deposits brought by rivers - the Indus, Ganga and Brahmaputra. The plains extend about 2,200 miles [3,200 km] from east to west. The average width of plains varies between 150-300 km. The maximum depth of alluvium deposits varies between 1,000-2,000 m. From north to south, these can be divided into three main sections: Babhar, Tarai, and alluvial plains. Universal plains can be divided into Khadar and Bhangar. Babhar is a small band from between 8-10 km along the Shivalik Mountains where the slope splits. As a result, streams and rivers from the mountains set heavy loads of stones and stones, and in some cases, disappear into the area. South of Babar is the Terai belt, with a width of about 10-20 km where most of the streams and rivers recede without having a well-defined station, thus creating the wet and wet conditions known as Tarai. This has a rich growth of natural vegetation and is home to a wide variety of wildlife.

Note:
 The Indus Plains - Ganga, also known as the "Great Plains", are the major tributaries of the Indus, Ganga and the Brahmaputra river systems. They run like the Himalayan mountains, stretching from Jammu and Kashmir and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in the west to Assam in the east and extending much of North and East India.
