In India, the rivers are broadly classified as Himalayan Rivers and Peninsular Rivers. Himalayan rivers are the watercourses that arise from Himalayan ranges and are perennial in nature. On the contrary, Peninsular rivers are the ones that originate from the Western Ghats and are non-perennial.

The catchment area of Himalayan rivers is very fertile, whereas Peninsular river basin is not much fertile. The article excerpt may help you in understanding the difference between Himalayan and Peninsular rivers.
