Why is South Asia referred as Indian Sub-continent?

टीपा लिहा

उत्तर

A sub-continent is a big geographical unit which stands out distinctly from the rest of the continent. Politically the continent is divided into many countries (SAARC countries). India forms the main part of the sub-continent so South Asia is often referred as Indian sub-continent.
