Indus Valley Civilisation collapsed after years of drought, says study
The Morning Standard
|November 30, 2025
A series of prolonged and severe droughts lasting more than 85 years each likely drove the gradual collapse of the Indus Valley Civilization (IVC), according to a new study published in Nature.
The research, led by IIT Gandhinagar in collaboration with two US universities, shows that repeated drought cycles between 4,450 and 3,400 years ago caused widespread aridification across 65-91% of the region, ultimately forcing the de-urbanisation of Harappan centres.

A SEASON OF SHARBAT
