Detailed Solution

India has a 30% fraction of its land area covered by mountains.

These mountain ranges contain some of the tallest mountains in the world, which provide a strong barrier to the chilly arctic air. Additionally, they increase storm twists, which affect India's environment. The abundant Indo-Gangetic fields are traversed by streams that originate in these mountains.
