HIMALAYAN RIVERS

The Himalayan Rivers originate from the ice-glaciers in the high mountain regions of the North India. The glaciers acts as a major sources of water in the Himalayan Rivers. The water remains throughout the year and they are perennial in nature. The Himalayan River system is comprised of Ganges, Sindhu and Brahmaputra.


PENINSULAR RIVERS

The Peninsular Rivers are non-perennial in nature. The monsoon rains acts as a major source of water for the peninsular rivers. These rivers have heavy flow during the rainy season and reduced flow during the dry season. All peninsular rivers flow towards east and join Bay of Bengal except a few. The godavari, krishna, tungabadhra, cauveri, etc are called as peninsular rivers.

The main water divide in peninsular rivers is formed by the Western Ghats, which run from north to south close to the western coast. Most of the major rivers of the peninsula such as the Mahanadi, the Godavari, the Krishna and the Kaveri flow eastwards and drain into the Bay of Bengal.
