Perennial rivers are the one which flow throughout the year. They are also called evergreen or ever flowing rivers. They descend from the glaciers on the Himalaya region. And include the Ganga, Yamuna, Indus, Brahmaputra River, etc.
In contrast the seasons rivers include the Godavari River, Mahanadi, Kaveri , etc. These are rivers which are seasonal in nature i.e they are lively when water of the monsoon fills them. They are mostly found in the southern part of India.
