hey mate your answers is
The Western part of the Northern plain is known as the Punjab plain. The plain is drained by the Indus and its tributaries, such as, the Sutlej, Beas and Ravi. Only a part of the Indus basin lies in India. The plain slopes gently down towards the south-west; hence the rivers follow the slope of the land. The plain is mostly made of silts. The soil is porous. The plain that is formed by the deposition of new alluvium near the river banks is called Bet.
Large boulder, gravel, sand and clay cover the foot-hill regions of the Punjab plain and they are known as ‘Bhabar’ plain or bhabar soil. This soil cannot hold water. The new alluvium deposited near the river banks of these rivers forms a plain called Bet.
hope its helpful

The northern plain of India is one of the largest and most fertile plain has been formed by the alluvium brought down by Ganga,lndus,Yamuna,Ghaghara and their tributaries parallel to them.
The general slope of the land is from North to south but there are many micro slopes. The intervening slopes which are quite pronounced with the relative variations of 15 to 30m in relief are locally known as khols.
