In the sub-continent since the collision with the subduction of the Eurasian plate, and this gives rise to the Himalayas, the highest mountain in the world, currently in India's northern and north - east. In the former seabed south of the emergence of the Himalayas, the plate has created the Great Depression, which gradually filled with sediment from the river of origin, is now Indonesia - the plain Ganges.
