प्रश्न
Answer the following question:
Briefly explain the geological evolution of the peninsular plateau.
उत्तर
During the pre-Cambrian era, there was a large depression in which the sediment was deposited and a block of crystal rock known as the Peninsula Plateau came out of this depression and never submerged again. This stable land has behaved as a rigid and inflexible block throughout its geological history and is often compared to a horst.
