Answer:
Drainage Systems of India
- India's drainage systems are governed primarily by the subcontinent's wide relief characteristics such as soil and precipitation.
- Drainage systems are therefore divided into Himalayan Rivers and Peninsula rivers.
Himalayan rivers:
- They cut profound gorges and have a lengthy course, carrying loads of sand, forming ox-bow lakes, flood plains, and deltas.
Peninsular rivers:
- They are seasonal and depend on the rainfall for their flow. They have classes that are shorter and shallower.
- Most of them rivers are originate from the Bay of Bengal. Some come from the Central Highlands and flow eastward.
