Why do large masses of the evaporite sedimentary rocks exist in silurian rocks in western ny but are not forming there today?
Coming out of the late Ordovician extinction due to large landmasses at the South Pole, the Silurian was a period of a warming environment, likely with large arid areas with high evaporation rates. Maybe look at Silurian paleogeography to get a better idea of what was going on to allow this.

What large high flat land areas lies between eastern ghats and western ghats?
The large high flat land area that lies between the Eastern Ghats and Western Ghats is known as the Deccan Plateau. This plateau is characterized by its elevated terrain and is predominantly made up of volcanic rock, covering a significant portion of southern India. It is bordered by the Eastern Ghats to the east and the Western Ghats to the west, forming a distinct geographical region. The Deccan Plateau is known for its rich biodiversity and is home to various ecosystems.

Where are the sedimentary rocks found in India?
Sedimentary rocks are found in various regions across India. Major sedimentary rock formations can be found in the Himalayan region, the Western and Eastern Ghats, the Deccan Plateau, and the Indo-Gangetic plain.
