    How does India have great physical variations?

    Answer:

                    The land of India displays great physical variants such as: (i)The Peninsular Plateau constitutes one of the ancient landmasses on the earth's surface. It was supposed to be one of the most stable land blocks. (ii) The Himalayas and the Northern Plains are the most recent landforms, but the Himalayas are the most unstable zone. (iii) The Himalaya represent a very youthful topography with high peaks, deep valleys and perennial rivers. (iv) The Northern Plains are formed by alluvial deposits. (v) The Peninsular Plateau is composed of igneous and metamorphic rocks. Therefore, geologically we find great physical variation in India due to certain changes formed by various tectonic movements inside the Earth.
