The Indo-Gangetic Plain stretches across northern India and is home to one-tenth of the world’s population.
The Indo-Gangetic plain is a fertile plain of 2.55 million km² comprising most of northern and eastern India, eastern Pakistan and Bangladesh. The region takes its name from the Indus and Ganges rivers, and includes a large number of urban areas. Bordered on the north by the Himalayas, which feeds its numerous rivers and is the source of the fertile alluvium deposited throughout the region by the two river systems, to the south by the Chota Nagpur plateau and the Vindhya and Satpura ranges, and to the west with the Iranian plateau.
