The Himalayan Mountains

In Class 9 Geography, this topic from the chapter “Physical Features of India” introduces the Himalayan Mountains as young fold mountains formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates. Students learn about the parallel ranges—Himadri, Himachal and Shiwalik—along with the Purvanchal hills, their major peaks, glaciers and important passes. The topic also explains how the Himalayas influence India’s climate, give rise to major rivers, support forests and biodiversity, and affect settlements, agriculture and natural hazards.
