Detailed Solution

The physical feature marked in the map of India is the Himalayas.
The Himalayas cover the northeast parts of India, from Jammu and Kashmir in the north to Arunachal Pradesh in the east. These young fold mountains act as the barriers to the cold winds from central Asia, protecting the Indian mainland. The Himalayan mountains have a significant role in the climate of India.

The melted ice from the mountains flows through the Himalayan rivers.
