The Ganga is the most important river in the Northern plains. The river originates as Bhagirathi from a glacier called Gangotri, in the Himalayas. On its way down the hills, Alaknanda and Mandakini rivers join Bhagirathi. The combined waters of these three rivers become the mighty Ganga. It enters the plains as a big river near Rishikesh.The Ganga flows through the states of Uttaranchal, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and west Bengal, it splits into two branches.

$bramhaputra \: basin$


The Brahmaputra River rises in Tibet and enters India from the east. It flows through a narrow valley in Assam. Here, the river is always flooded in the rainy season. It enters Bangladesh and joins River Padma. The Ganga and Brahmaputra rivers together from the largest delta in the world before flowing into the Bay of Bengal. This area is known as Sunder bans.The rivers coming from the Himalayas have plenty of water throughout the year. The snow and ice melt during the summer and the water flows into the rivers.

$indus \: basin$


The northern part of the Indus Valley, with its tributaries, forms the Punjab region, while the lower course of the Indus is known as Sindhand ends in a large delta. The river has historically been important to many cultures of the region. The 3rd millennium BC saw the rise of a major urban civilization of the Bronze Age. During the 2nd millennium BC, the Punjab region was mentioned in the hymns of the Hindu Rigveda as Sapta Sindhu and the Zoroastrian Avesta as Hapta Hindu (both terms meaning "seven rivers"). Early historical kingdoms that arose in the Indus Valley include Gandhāra, and the Ror dynasty of Sauvīra. The Indus River came into the knowledge of the West early in the Classical Period, when King Darius of Persia sent his Greek subject Scylax of Caryanda to explore the river, ca. 515 BC.
