by 1500 B.C Mohenjo-Daro, Harappa and many of the villages thought out the Indus River Valley had been mysteriously abandoned. Historians are not certain why this happened. Did overpowering floods wash away whole villages? Did the soil lose its fertility and make impossible to farm? Did famine and drought cause the people of the valley to flee into other regions?

The demise of the Indus River Valley civilization is often disputed. It is thought to be some combination of flooding, extreme weather, disease, and conquest.

How did indus valley come to a end?

the above is answer is not at all correct. its true that aryans came in 1500bc and they were very destructive in nature not like indus valley civilization who were always had constructive minds. the indus valley civilization existed from 2500bc to 1750 bc. that means before aryans came the indus valley civilization was already finished 250 years ago. there are some historians that say that the indus river was flooded and due to that the indus valley civilization came to an end but in reality it was not possible that a flood destroys the whole civilization which was extended from uttar pradesh in the west to jammu and kashmir in north and to maharashtra in west. the actual reason which is more relaible answer than any other is that the indus valley civilization got extinct due to ecological factors. environmental and climatic factors like drying up of rivers,deforestation,soil sanity etc led to the decline of the greatest civilization.
