Peninsular rivers are seasonal as they are rain-fed.
The rivers are characterized by broad and shallow valleys. They flow over hard rock bed.
The velocity of water in the rivers and the load carrying capacity of the streams is low due to low gradient.
Most of the major rivers of the peninsula such as the Mahanadi, the Godavari, the Krishna and the Cauvery flow eastwards and drain into the Bay of Bengal. While Narmada and Tapi are the only two rivers which flow westward and thus falls into Arabian Sea.
