Indian subcontinent
Continent Drift
Today Indian subcontinent is located in the Indian Ocean and Asian continent. But, the Indian subcontinent Once was attached between Africa and Madagascar. In 1912 Alfred Wegener invented continental drift. Before the twelfth century, people believed the continent had not moved." The Origin of Ocean and continent" was written by Alfred Wegener.
He explains present continents gathered in a single land mass that later drifted apart. So our world map shows a jigsaw puzzle shape with different continents and countries that appeared like they could fit each other. These countries are far apart, but their outline seems they could join together. For nearly 50 years, Wegner's argument to be scientifically proved.
Continent
A billion years ago, a supercontinent called Rodinia. That continent located south of the equator 750 million years ago, this supercontinent broke up. During this period, only single-cell bacteria were alive in the world.270 million years ago, the divided continent fused. That fused continent is known as Pangea. During that period, the Indian craton (A craton is a large, stable block of the earth which forms the centre of a continent.)between Africa, Madagascar, Antarctica and Australia.
Himalaya Formation
After the Dinosaur era, Panega split into two parts. The north part is known as Laurasia(North America, Europe, and Asia). The southern part is known as Gondwana. (Africa, South America, Antarctica, Australia, India).
From 150 million years ago, Antarctica, India, and Madagascar separated from Africa. From 130 million years ago, India and Madagascar separated from Antarctica. Around 90 million years ago, India separated from Madagascar. Almost 50-60 million years ago, The Indian subcontinent moved and joined Asia. At this point, the Himalayas and Tibetan plateau formed. The Himalayas range grows 5mm every year.
