Answers
Answer:
River Narmada is between Satpuda Mountain range and Vindhyachal Mountain range. The Narmada River, also called the Rewa and previously also known as Nerbudda, is a river in central India after the Godavari, and the Krishna.
The Tapti River (or Tapi) is a river in central India between the Godavari and Narmada rivers which flows westwards before draining into the Arabian Sea. The river has a length of 724km and flows through the states of Maharashtra, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh.
Answer:
hey dear here is your answer..
There are three main reasons...
these are:➡️
1. Gradient of the terrain
2. Presence of rift valleys
3. Mountain ranges which deflect rivers.
West-bound rivers:
1. Narmada: It originates from Mount Amarkantak in Madhya Pradesh. As it flows down the hill, it is trapped in a rift valley between the Vindhya and the Satpura muntain ranges which leads it to the west towards Gujarat, were it drains into the Gulf of Khambat.
2. Tapti: It rises in the Satpura mountain range and is also trapped in a rift valley (don't remember the name).
East-bound rivers:
1. Ganga-Yamuna: They rise in the Himalayas, come down the mountains and turn east when they encounter the rocky terrain of the Aravallis and the Chota Nagpur Plateau.
2. Godavari, Krishna, Kaveri: All originate in or near the eastern side of the Western Ghats. As rivers cannot climb up, they flow towards east, into the Bay of Bengal.
