उत्तर

The Himalayas are young, fold mountains formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates, mainly composed of sedimentary rocks. They are high, rugged, and geologically unstable.

The Indian Plateau is an ancient, stable block of hard rocks, formed through faulting and uplift, mainly composed of igneous and metamorphic rocks. It has gentle slopes and is rich in minerals.
