Hey friend,
Inland waterways like rivers, canals, lakes etc. are affected by following factors
1. Regular flow of sufficient water is needed.
2. Waterfalls, cataracts, sharp bends along the rivers; hinders the development of inland waterways.
3. Silting along the canals and rivers reduces their depth.
4. Water from these sources is diverted and used in irrigation.
5. Plain land is needed so that ordinary boats are navigable.
Hope it helps!
