When the Indian Plate and Eurasian Plate collided, 50 million years ago and is still continuing today, the crumpling of the land thrust up the Himalayan Mountain Range. One result of the thrust was the folding of the rock layers.
The Himalayas are Fold Mountains
the humans of Himalaya built them
Karakoram and Himalaya mountain ranges.
The Himalayas are Fold Mountains
Fold mountain or mountain chains are formed by the collisions between continental plates.
Continental Collision Boundary
Aravalli range are the oldest fold mountain ranges in India
Fold mountains are formed when tectonic plates collide, causing the Earth's crust to crumple and fold. An example of a fold mountain range is the Himalayas in Asia, which were formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates.

No, the rocky mountains were not formed on a destructive plate. That is wrong, they are fold mountains, they were formed on a weakening in the plate, and millions of years ago the plate was under pressure and then it buckled and the Rockies were formed.
Fold mountains.
Mount Kosciuszko is a fold mountain. It was formed through the collision of tectonic plates, where the Earth's crust was pushed upwards to create the mountain. Fault mountains are formed due to the movement along faults in the Earth's crust.
