प्रश्न
Explain why the Pamir Knot is called so. Write briefly about the mountain ranges that radiate from the Pamir Knot.
उत्तर
Pamir Knot is called so because many mountain ranges appear to radiate outwards in different directions from this small zone. To the east of the Pamir Knot extend the Kunlun mountains and to the north extend the Tien Shan mountains. The Himalayas emerge from the Pamir Knot towards the south-east direction. The Karakoram Range extends south-eastwards from the Pamir Knot between the Kunlun and the Himalayas. To the west of the Pamir Knot lies the Hindu Kush Range and to the south-west radiates the Sulaiman Range.
