Write a note on the plateaus of India.
Answer»
Just below the Plains of north India, in the southern direction, is the Central and Deccan Plateau „ of India.
This plateau is in the shape of an inverted triangle.
Since this plateau is surrounded by water on three sides, it is called a peninsula.
This plateau is the oldest landmass of India. It is made up of hard rocks.
The valleys of Narmada and Son rivers are located right in the middle of this plateau.
These valleys divide the plateau into two parts.
The northern part is called Malwa Plateau and the southern part is called Deccan Plateau.
The soil of the Central and Deccan Plateau is black but it is not very fertile.
However, many areas of this plateau yield good crops.
This plateau is so rich in minerals that it is called the Treasury of Minerals’.
