The Indian subcontinent was once part of the supercontinent Gondwana. Over millions of years, it drifted northward at an astonishing speed, eventually colliding with the Eurasian plate and forming the Himalayas, which continue to rise by about 5 millimeters yearly.
It’s truly amazing! India’s journey from Gondwana to forming the Himalayas shows how our planet is always evolving. The ongoing rise of the Himalayas is a testament to the incredible forces at work beneath our feet!
