Question

drainage system of north east india​

Answer 1

Answer:

The entire North-East of India is drained into the Bay of Bengal, largely through the two principal rivers of the region, Brahmaputra and Barak, flowing through Bangladesh. The drainage of a small area of Manipur, in its eastern part, finds its way into Chindwin, a tributary of Irrawaddy, which flowing by Yangon (Rangoon) traverses its delta and falls into the Gulf of Martaban, a part of Andaman Sea. Another area not included in the catchment of either of these two principal rivers is the southern part of Mizoram, drained principally by Kaladan, which falls directly into the Bay of Bengal, on the west coast of Myanmar at Sittwe (Akyab). Though the catchment of Brahmaputra extends into Tibet and Bhutan, besides India, much of the rain falling in the North-Eastern states finds its way in the territorial waters of either Bangladesh or Myanmar, before being discharged into the Bay of Bengal
