The Main Central Thrust (MCT) is a major geological fault in the Himalayas that separates the Greater Himalaya from the Lesser Himalaya. It is a thrust fault, which means that the rocks on the north side of the fault have been pushed up and over the rocks on the south side. The MCT is a major tectonic boundary, and it has played a significant role in the formation of the Himalayas.<\/p>\n<p>The Gangetic Plain is a vast alluvial plain in northern India that is formed by the Ganges River and its tributaries.
