  • The earth is composed of several plates.
  • In the past there was only one huge land mass or the Pangea.
  • This Pangea broke up and drifted apart from one another.
  • The Gondwana land was the southern part of this Pangea.
  • Due to conventional current, this Gondwana land was further broken down and split into several parts.
  • One part of this Gondwana, the Indo-Australian plate started drifting towards the North.
  • As a result it collided with the Eurasian plate in the North.
  • This collision caused the sedimentary deposition of the Tethys to get folded forming the Himalayas.
