The present study deals with the measurement of intensity of shape preferred orientation in the Palaeoproterozoic Malanjkhand Granite (Central India). This intensity is measured by calculating the strength of mineral lineation of biotite (κ bi ). The NE-SW striking Central Indian Suture (CIS) that was formed by the collision of the Bundelkhand and Bastar cratons lies to the north of the granite and κ bi was calculated in 11 samples collected at varying distances from the CIS. The data indicate that κ bi increases towards the CIS. Therefore, it is concluded that tectonic events associated with the CIS have influenced fabric development in the Malanjkhand Granite. Previous studies about the timing of formation of the CIS are described and the time-relationship between fabric development in the Malanjkhand Granite and regional tectonics is discussed.
