The fossils were discovered from the Vindhyan Mountains in Central India by Rafat Jamal Azmi at the Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology, Dehradun, who reported in the Journal of the Geological Society of India in 1998. [100] Azmi announced the discovery in Science [101] and was immediately received with scepticism.
Gupta soon joined the faculty of geology and produced his first Ph.D. scholar Inder Jeet in 1972. [14] Panjab University awarded him a D.Sc. in 1972 in recognition of his research, and created a separate chair, Director of the Institute of Paleontology, for him. [15] By 1989, he published over 458 research articles and five books on Himalayan ...
The Lesser Himalayas is made up mostly of unfossiliferous sedimentary and metasedimentary rocks; such as shale, sandstone, conglomerate, slate, phyllite, schist, quartzite, limestone and dolomite. The rocks range in age from Precambrian to Miocene. The geology is complicated due to folding, faulting, and thrusting and are largely unfossiliferous.
The geology of Himachal Pradesh is dominated by Precambrian rocks that were assembled and deformed during the India-Asia collision and the subsequent Himalayan orogeny. The Northern Indian State Himachal Pradesh is located in the Western Himalaya (Fig. 1).

The Himalaya orogenic belt the highest elevated mountain range on Earth. In summer, air mass across the South Asia is heated up in general. On the contrary, airmass above the Himalayas and Tibet experiences adiabatic cooling and sinks rapidly, forming an intense high pressure cell. This cell is therefore capable of facilitating landward airflow ...
The Himalaya offers many opportunities to study all factors that go into mountain building such as continental collisions, erosion, and even climatic changes. In order to understand the structural complexity of the Himalaya orogen, understanding the South Tibet detachment is critical to figuring out the exact time and processes involved in the ...
