where signs appear, indicating the tectonic abrasion of the continental margin,
attaining perhaps a width of upto few hundreds of kilometres, and probably a
rather significant subduction of the continental platform below the orogen.

The explosive type andesitic (calc-alkaline) volcanism (Khardung-Dir volcanics)
seems to follow the second stage collision of the arc-accreted continental margin
with the margin of the other plate i.e. along Shyok suture in the Ladakh sector.
