The Indian Sub-Continent or simply the Sub-continent is a southern region and peninsula of Asia, mostly situated on the Indian Plate and projecting southwards in to Indian Ocean from the Himalayas. Geologically, the Indian sub-continent is related to the Land mass that rifted from Gondwana and merged with Eurasian plate nearly 55 Million years ago. Geographically, it is the peninsular region in south-central Asia delineated by Himalayas in the north, the Hindu Kush in the west, and the Arakanese in the East. Politically the Indian Sub-continent includes now all Sovereign Independent States, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. Sometimes, the Geographical term “Indian Sub-Continent” is used interchangeably with “South Asia”.

India’s land frontier extending over a distance of approximately 15,200 km has been the source of numerous problems leading to deadly conventional wars with her neighbours, most of them arising as a result of India’s claims on territories of its neighbouring countries, which in turn have arisen on account of ill-defined international borders, by the British, as colonial power which have been ruling this area of sub-continent since Hundreds of Decades and had to leave it in haste after world war -ii. There are still severe Long pending disputes of India with the independent nations of the sub-continent, which are now sovereign states having different cultures, civilizations and religions and tensions remains among the nations due to violation of international laws by India having 1.3 billion population for its Hegemonial Designs in South Asia.
