Which of these mountain ranges is not among the ones separating India from the rest of Asia?
Arakanyoma
The Indian subcontinent is separated from the rest of Asia by a chain of mountains: the Himalayas in the north, the Karakoram in the north-west (along with the Hindu Kush and the Sulaiman-Kirthar ranges further west), and the Purvanchal hills in the east, which continue southwards into Myanmar as the Arakan Yoma.
The Himalayas and the Karakoram lie directly on India's northern frontier. The Hindu Kush meets the Karakoram-Pamir knot at the north-western edge of Jammu and Kashmir (Gilgit-Baltistan, part of India's claimed territory, borders Afghanistan's Wakhan corridor in this area).
Hence, the answer is Arakanyoma.
