Why are the ghat mountains a positive geographic influence and the himalayas a negative geographic influence for settlement?

The Ghats mountains are a positive geographic influence and the Himalayas a negative geographic influence for settlement because:

The Himalayas are subjected to fierce storms frequently. Since it houses one of the highest peaks in the world, it is completely covered with ice and snow. Beneath the Himalayas the earth tends to move, eventually leading to a rise in the height of the mountains at the cost of earthquakes.

Meanwhile, the Eastern Ghats and the Western Ghats are not subjected to such extreme situations thus making it a positive influence for settlement, despite the landslides which happen frequently.

powers  are  denied  to the  national governmentin three distinct ways: some  powers, such as the  power  to levy duties on exports or prohibit the freedom of religion, speech, press, or assembly, are expressly  denied  to the  national government  in the  constitution.

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
