Indo-Gangetic Plain

This study majorly caters to conducting an intensive exploration that is associated with the “plains of Indo Gangetic regions”. Moreover, the study will provide its major focus on determining the intricate relations that are evidenced in the “Indo Gangetic plains” of the Indian subcontinent with respect to the climatic conditions. However, in delving into the analysis of the “plains of Indo Gangetic” we first need to know the specific characteristic features that are associated with this region. It is generally noticed that this region caters to the tropical climates that exist within the basin of the Indus. 

Indo-Gangetic Plains: Overview

While talking about the plains of “Indo Gangetic” we recall the vast flood plains that exist in the Indian subcontinent. The region refers to the most fertile regions of India as the fertile plain has been created by the massive perennial rivers. These perennial rivers that have their source in the Himalayan Mountains are namely, Ganga, Indus and Brahmaputra respectively. Indo Gangetic plains have been mostly addressed as the North Indian River plain. The totality of the plane has been estimated at several hundred thousand km per square with the extended region of North India as per its subcontinent. The soil texture of the Indo-Gangetic plain has been described as highly fertile as compared to others. According to the information, it originated from the drainage system of the Ganga and Indus stretching out to the surrounding countries of Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh. The Indo Gangetic plains have covered almost the landfills of 401.72 million hectares. 

Indo-Gangetic Plains in Indian Map

The Indo Gangetic plains in the Indian map have been portrayed as an expansion of the river banks and the corresponding area of both Ganga and Indus. It has been identified that the entire formation and flow is running across the in-between lines of these two rivers. All across the Thar Desert as it has been extended to the North Western side of India is a major part of the Indo Gangetic plain on the Indian map. Besides that, the Deccan Plateau aligned as a part of the Indo Gangetic plain on the Indian map. 

Features of Indo-Gangetic Plains 

The Indo Gangetic plain is provided by the belt as an expensive expansion that is being uninterrupted all through the alluvium formation. The expansion of the Indo Gangetic plain is formed by the slits, clay, and rocks that are being deposited by multiple other rivers. The physical characteristics of this area have been observed as flat. The entire region is mostly treeless for the conductive irrigation of canals. Moreover, the water sources of this region of Indo-Gangetic plains have been determined as rich and fertile. 

Language and Civilization of Indo-Gangetic Plains 

All across the region, the Indus Valley Civilization was formed as the first civilization in the Indo-Gangetic plains. With this civilization, the first gathering of ancient tradition and culture was generated. In terms of this, Hindi along with Urdu are the languages that are overwhelmingly used in the entire region. It has been specified that these languages are the major attributes of lingua franca in the Indo Gangetic plains. 

The Climate of the Indo-Gangetic Plains 

In the last few years, it has been able to understand that the Indo Gangetic plain contains a tropical climate. Therefore, its western region is mostly being circulated by the monsoon climate and weather changes. However, to the west, the monsoon is less circulated as there is an emerging climate of aridity. In addition to that, in winter, the Indo Gangetic plain can be identified as having the characteristics of foggy events. For the mountainous foothills, there is a possibility that the water pressure and not being able to be observed in the air.  Therefore, fog generates in this area, especially in the time of winter. However, the average temperature of the Indo Gangetic plain has been estimated as 32-36 degrees C as per the coverage in July. 

Conclusion 

In conclusion the study, it needs to be noted that a depth analysis has been made in providing a broader view of the climate within the region of “Indo Gangetic plains’ ‘. However, the study has successively developed certain significant pointers that have helped in providing better acknowledgement of the entire concept. Focus has been provided on the features, divisions, language as well as civilization of the region. Moreover, it is also noticed that during the month of December, this region of “Indo Gangetic plains” suffers “western disturbances” and thereby receives a significant amount of rainfall.
