Destruction of life and dinosaurs on earth occurred was not linked to ONLY KT phenomenon but also simultaneous process of creation of Himalaya range. Saraswati, Originating from Himalayan SHIVALIK range area, draining to PUSHKAR to RANN OF KUTCH, though the course of the river change time to time with seismic activity. One of the tributary was MITHI from SINDH area. Other was KHARI from RAJASTHAN desert area and even SARASWATI of Sidhdhhpur PATAN was joining the main river drainage.

Many theories and researches have been put forward to explain HIMALAYA
Himalaya was formed during this present Manvantar – seventh Manvantara – of Vaivasvata Manu.
If the KT period has Passed 64.8Mn years (65 Mn), that is the Likely time event The Himalaya was created by collision of the Indo-Eurasian Plates. But Ganga was not existing, After a Long period of lack of Sun heat, cloudy dusty atmosphere Earth went to a deep freezing and after LONG LONG freezing periods vast glaciations were formed in whole of the Himalayan uplifting region. Kailash was the Higher than Everest-UMOLANGAM may not be existing at that time. But the destruction was Prevented by Shiva JATA – Kailash , Mansarowar. And safe GANGA AVTARAN PLANNED BY BHAGIRATH.
BHAGIRATH made the river Ganga come to Earth. And took many generations before he succeeded to do so. The following figures may put some light on it. That was the Time Before last 12 MAHAYUGAS.
Generally Puran do not mentioned the days of the occasions. But DEVIBHAGVAT has GANGAJI AVTARAN was the day of MANGALWAR, JYESHth SUD DASHAM , HAST NAKSHTRA.
1KT =15 Maha Yugas(15 x 4.32) =68.48 Mn years
Ganga Avtaran time is about before 12 MahaYugas 12×4.32 Mn + SatYuga +TretaYuga+Dwapar+present KaliYug =51.84 Mn + 1728000 + 1296000 + 864000 +5116 =Total Years =55733116= 55.733116 Mn
