Question

(4) Which rivers originate in the Himalayas
and join the Indus? Consider the height and write the driection of their flow​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Indus originated in Tibet at the meeting point of Gar and Sengge rivers and then flows towards the southwest across India and finally across Pakistan to the Arabian Sea. The rivers Chenab, the Jhelum, the Beas, the Ravi, and the Sutlej feed the Indus among other smaller rivers.

Answer 2

Answer:

Average elevation at which the Indus flows through JK is about 4000 m above sea level. It is joined by the Zaskar River at Leh (these kind of points are important for prelims). Near Skardu, it is joined by the Shyok at an elevation of about 2,700 m.
