the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates.
The Shivaliks are a mountain range in the northern Indian subcontinent. They are located south of the HFT and are composed of sedimentary rocks that were deposited in a foreland basin during the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates. The Gangetic Plain is a vast plain in northern India that is located south of the Shivaliks. It is composed of alluvial sediments that were deposited by the Ganges River. The Trans-Himalaya is a mountain range in the northern Indian subcontinent. It is located north of the HFT and is composed of metamorphic and igneous rocks that were formed during the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates.
