“…Many workers have discussed about the Kumaon Himalaya pertaining to different aspects of structure and tectonics in this region (Bhattacharya, 2008;Valdiya and Pande, 2009;Joshi and Tiwari, 2009;Agarwal et al 2010Agarwal et al , 2016Agarwal and Sharma, 2011;Bhargava, 2011;Patel et al, 2007Patel et al, , 2011Srivastava et al 2011;Verma and Bhattacharya, 2011;Jain et al 2012Jain et al , 2016Shah et al, 2012;Singh et al, 2012;Jade et al 2014;Dubey 2014;Banerjee et al 2015;Bhattacharya and Ahmed 2016)and their works have thrown much light on the tectonic evolution of the rocks of the region which are highly folded and tectonically much complex. The mesoscopic folds have been used by many workers for the analysis of the folding and the strain conditions (Dieterich and Carter, 1969;Roberts and Strömgard, 1972;Hudleston, 1973;Sanderson, 1976;Bhattacharya, 1978;Hudleston, and Holst, 1984;Lisle, 1992;Bastida, 1993;Bastida et al, 2003;Srivastava, 1995Srivastava, , 2003Srivastava and Gairola, 2003).…”
