Western Ghats: Formation, structure and composition with animation 

Mahi is in Kerala but it is th the part of puducherry

We kerala people living around mahe, go there to fill petrol and cone back. Bcoz, petrol rates are far less there, no state imposed tax . ( mahe is a UT)

​@@bobyjohn7710French rule in India was in many small pockets... 1... Main pondicherry 160 down to Chennai on the east cost of India . 2... Karaikal is on the east cost about 140 km down to pondicherry main. 3... Yanam about 800 hundred km upto main pondicherry in the state of Andhra Pradesh...on the east cost. 4... Mahe on the smallest part of UT pondicherry is far on the cost of kerela .All there four part of Pondicherry are single UT of Pondicherry... 5... Chandan Nagar on the Bank of Ganges ( Hugli ) was also part of pondicherry and french administration during fresh rule accepted to merge with west Bengal ..

🪔🚩🇮🇳👌🙏✊️🇮🇳🚩🪔

Why are these( western and eastern ghats )called ghats and not mountain ranges ?

Great observation dear

Hehe bro powli😅

Thanks dear, keep watching n sharing

The himalyan rivers were fully developed around 20 lakh years ago, some Peninsular rivers are much older. But dear first human walked in Africa around 2 lakh years ago so both himalyan n Peninsular rivers were fully developed when humans walked the earth

might have, would have, yeah South India gave everything to the world and civilization too....thats why we dont find any trace of older one..not even close to mesopotamia and harappa.......living in the false sense of pride and questioning the facts gives lot of info about you

Dude common, you came to watch Geography video. As explained by sir above, rivers are much older than humans.

Ok lumbani nepali

😂😂

Thanks a lot dear 😊🙏

Thanks for the sub! working to get more, kindly spread the word and help us reach there

Thanks for appreciation. Regarding pronunciation of names I had already apologized in advance in one of my post. And I would humbly disagree with your remark that it takes little effort for correct pronunciation. There hundreds of names of not thousands in this whole map series and most of these names I have only read and never heard in people's conversation. Moreover, unlike English words there are no reliable source for pronunciation of these names and remember them and accurately pronounce while creating audio track is while another level of challenge. Moreover many places are pronounced differently in English and local language like Pune or Anand or roorkee. That is why I focused on keeping the spellings accurate as it will help the viewer correlate and understand the place.

FYI , 'ghat' is a deformed word of 'kadu' / 'காடு' meaning forest. Suffix word 'mala'/'malai' மலை meaning mountain

Let me try to put an counter argument 1. 2 million PPL died due to partition, that would not have happed 2. 4 wars were fought between India n pak, that would not have happened. 3. So much fund is spent on security because of dual boundary threat, we could have used that money for PPL 4. There would have been little opposition to India's claim for permanent seat in unsc 5. India could have easy access to middle Asia and west Asia, there could have been much better trade integration and India could be leader of south n Central Asia. 6. Most problems in Pakistan is due to there thinking of Indian threat, so Pakistan would not be dominated by army. 7. If United India would have never interfered in Afghanistan, hence no Taliban would have formed. Terrorism would not have germinated in central Asia. 8. Pipelines from Iran and Russia would have been reality making fuel cheaper n providing boost to economy. 9. There wouldn't have been a Kashmir issue or Kashmir insurgency. No displacement of kashmiri pandits And many more

Absolutely

@@zetaupsc Agreed, but Congress Giants failed to grasp those facts. Sad, but true.

👏👏🙏🙏

​@@zetaupsc👌👍

glad u learned about south india from the video. thanks for watching the video

Thanks dear, keep watching n sharing ☺️☺️

Great u enjoyed it. Hope you like other videytoo

thanks dear

Thanks dear for info i read about it while making video, may be forgot to mention in video

Dear historicaly first human civilization is not more than 12k years old, Himalayas were formed 66million years ago, so if u are studying anthropology or evolution original inhabitants has great meaning. However politically it is divisive

@@zetaupsc right.When a land moves even by an inch it may take centuries but has great weathering impact. Its is not easy to co exist , establish a society with continuously changing weather. The "known" oldest civilization may be around 10-12 k yrs ago. But the 100% proven civilization is not more than 6500 years ago. So the human civilization of this land were immigrants by the land from the north, North East ,North west. The marine immigrants were there but at later time.Right now The whole world is fighting because of the so called "original inhabitants".I believe the word itself is wrong it should be "the first immigrants" . Especially when we talk about India.The theory of Moolnivasi is very shallow in the context of India's history...

@@sanb2023 the humans have developed from Africa, so technically everyone is migrant 😊😊 I do not contest that. In anthropology, I do not remember well but it describes which region has which human race and how they came and settled. Aryans are believed to have come from central Asia/Europe. So immigration has happened without doubt. But the world is not fighting for first migrant but for state. Before 18th century there were only nations and no concept of states. Nations identity existed even though they werenin different kingdoms. It was unification of Germany and Italy that gave rise to the concept of state. Now all nations want state. Nations which are in minority they fight for a seperate state. Remember the two nation theory which created three states. The demand of dravidaland or khalistan all are basically a nation demanding a seperate state.

Thanks dear

Well surely it needs some work

i wanted to make this video more of a concept related thing than giving raw data, i agree that peak heights are also useful, that is why in later videos i have included peak heights.

Thanks for the update

And their capital is Daman only

True sir, completly agree, it was wrongly mentioned in the reference i used

Ruled by a satan😢

every place on earth is supposed to be god's creation, isn't it?

thanks dear

Glad you liked it

If you are talking about subtitles then those are generated by youtube , you will have to ask RU-vid to correct them

Kindly provide a reference for your suggested pronunciation as it is completely different from what we were taught. So unless there is a good enough reference it will difficult for me to use them

Nice place

Thanks dear

Its really sad what happened in Kerala, people should force their representative to take necessary action. hope future such tragedies are avoided.

Yes ur right I wasn't aware when I made the video

Thanks dear

100% true, will makes video on that too

Thanks

Glad it was helpful!

OLS

The references I used did not mention them but I will try to broaden the spectrum

🙏🙏

Somali plate will hit in western ghats region however I am not aware of plate speeds but there is a good chance that the Indian plate might have subducted before such collision

Glad you think so!

Yes thanks

Great idea, will try to include in future videos

Thanks

Thanks

Thanks dear, good to know counterpart of palghar exits in Madagascar

I think I said sengottai pass connects madhurai and Kottayam, because my reference also said so but latter comments suggest that kollam is closure to the pass and also bigger than Kottayam. So it should b pass connects kollam and madhurai.

Kindly provide reference for correct pronunciation it will help

Palakkad is not Palaghat Kozhikode is not pronounced kozikode.It is kolikode .pls google

@@iyer0505 as per wikipedia "Palakkad Gap or Palghat Gap". Mam prnunciation of names is very much dependent on the native language we speak, i agree you may be right about kozikode, but that is how i was taught

Yes u are right these are the two immediate points in either sides of pass but madurai and Kottayam are two imp cites connected via these hence there name is used. Consider it this way that thal Ghar actually connects kasara and nashik but we always say that it connects Mumbai and nashik

@@zetaupsc Then you can say Kollam and Madurai bcos Kollam is bigger and important than Kottayam in Keralam

Kollam is one of the oldest and biggest cities in Kerala since ancient times. Kollam city is designed and build by Mar sapir iso. Ancient travelers ibin battuta and Marco polo mentioned Kollam sea port as the Finest in Keralam

And Kollam city is known as Prince of Arabian sea. Kottayam town is no where near to shenkotai than Kollam. Kollam is the biggest and nearest city to shenkotai gap

Its good to share knowledge. Jai hind

Thanks for suggestions will work.on it

@@MohammedAli-ht4fw do u mean pronunciation??

Thanks alot dear, the aim of this channel is to simplify proces of education. Yes this video is targeted towards upsc aspirants but if this channel works out good then I will start channel for school subjects

Kindly provide link to a good reference

@@zetaupsc you may not get one page reference. But doing some research through Google or RU-vid check would give you some information.

@@bharathbhatt6963 as i am not aware of right pronunciation i may find it difficult to identify because as per my education and knowledge the pronunciations are right , could you please collate a list and please share with me what you think is right pronunciation, could you please also verify it with all four major south indian language speakers that they agree on the pronunciation. your help is truly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Glad it was helpful!

Anamalai is highest peak in western ghats dear

Thanks for the appreceation. Regarding western ghats in chikmanglur i am not specifically aware of that regions geoglogy, but most mountains are formed due to folding generally by collision of plates. due to this the sedimentary rocks in sea bed or lower regions gets uplifted and metamorphosed. Hence it is very common to find sedimentary rocks on mountain tops. Even mt everest on its peaks have sedimentary rocks and many fossils are found in these rocks.

Yes it is

Thanks dear keep watching n sharing

Yeah I agree pronunciation is a issue but please understand it's not intended but ignorance as we in our surroundings do not hear those names but only read in books

@@conqueror7311 yes u r right,

@@conqueror7311 no for both, whole of Himalayas was formed by collision if you watch the three video series on Himalayas u will know the formation and why western Himalayas is different from eastern Himalayas. Satpura and vindhya existed way before approx 1.8 bya reunion islands hot spot occured arround 150 mya. We have a video on formation of vindhya and another on satpura it will give u clear understanding Reunion islands formed only Deccan traps we have another video on formation of Deccan traps. Deccan plateau is much bigger than decann traps

In all our books it says palghat, and even exam questions also use palghat.

@zetaupsc that's because u guys don't know to pronounce the exact vocal. Please don't humiliate our mother tongue. 👏

@@adv.ajaiabraham4089 exactly n same is true for many north indian places which are pronounced wrong by non locals like Pune, Anand, Roorkee, Almora, vadodara and many more. Most of us Indians speak English in a way that is much different than British or American English. But we still speak. Point being when non natives are going to name a place they are going to b inaccurate. The inaccuracies does not mean anyone is trying to humiliate other, we speak English in a different accent not for humiliating. English but because of our local language influences.

The books mention both names

Thanks dear, I will note it and include in future video

Thanks dear, keep watching n sharing.

Dear this is a simulation to help understand the topic and not a 100% accurate simulation following all physical laws. Further if you want to see what happens under sea then they are covered in seperate videos like sea floor spreading theory and plate tectonics were we discuss about plates and there u can see what happens under sea

Suggestions noted, thanks dear

Wow, thank you!

Yes western ghats are beautiful especially in monsoon, but Himalayas is also beautiful both are beautiful in their own ways

Glad u liked it and thanks for sharing ur views

Srilanka has great biodiversity and it is a continuation of western ghats hot spot. i will try in future to make a video on that. The channel is mainly based on syllabus of an exam held in india, so the focus mainly remains on indian geography. They do include world geography but that is less detailed than indian geography, hence the focsu is on indian geography. Thanks for watching the video.

Thanks dear, request u to bear with my pronunciation, it's basically ignorance of pronunciation because I have never heard people speak those names but only read it in books.

Thank you so much 😀

@@zetaupsc make it more all time period Cambrian, pre Cambrian, misozoic and all ..and all type of rock which is exist in India with sequence and thier formation with time period You can make full lecture 2 3 hours I'll take it

???? Isn't kanyakumari in south tamilnadu???

Thanks dear , ye to mera farz tha :)

Thanks for suggestions, I will try to make a video on. Setu

@@zetaupsc your content is so informative, and clear all geographical consecpt, your efforts is appreciable, keep it up..

Completely agree, the reference i used had mentioned it wrong.

पुडुचेरी this is how aajtak writes it

Thank you very much!

Thanks dear, keep watching and sharing

Great you liked it. The rivers in penisnular region flow in east because the slope of peninsular plateau is in west, the western ghats are younger and taller while eastern ghats are older and erroded. in north the aravalli forms a water divide, dividing into ganga river system which flows in east, and indus system which flows in west.

Nilgiri is part of western ghats

Thanks a lot 😊

Sure dear

After Indian geography I will do world geography I will cover some basic geography of Sri Lanka

@@zetaupsc thank you..

Dear, the length of india is 3200 KM while tallest peak is 8 KM, it is impossible to vissualize on normal scale, every thing has to be vertically exaggerated, The mountains are thus everything is exaggerated in vertical axis to give meaningful visualization

That is true, did not knew both were merged

Thanks dear

Thank you 👍

Thanks mam, i have made separate video on drift theory and sea floor spreading and this animation was originally used in explaining drift theory. Mam in your days people when opened books they could study not reels and shorts are major distractions, computer for study 1%, computer for entertainment 90% :)

completly agree sir,

Thanks dear,

Thank you so much 🙂 keep watching n sharing
