Concept:The Meghalaya Plateau is a detached part of the ancient Indian Peninsular Plateau, separated by a fault line.
Explanation:This plateau, along with the Karbi Anglong Plateau, is an extension of the main Peninsular Plateau.
It was originally connected but got isolated when the Indian plate moved northeast during the Himalayan formation.
The plateau is traditionally divided into the Garo, Khasi, and Jaintia Hills.
It receives very high rainfall from the Southwest monsoon.
The region east of the Dhansiri River and west of the Singimari River covers an area of about 35,291 km².
The Karbi Anglong Plateau is pear-shaped and covers 7,000 km², linking to Meghalaya via a denuded land patch.
