Answer 1

Answer:

river is a large, natural stream of flowing water. Rivers are found on every continent and on nearly every kind of land. Rivers have always been important to people. In prehistoric times, people settled along the banks of rivers, where they found fish to eat and water for drinking, cooking, and bathing. Later, people learned that the fertile soil along rivers is good for growing crops.When towns and industries developed, the rushing water of rivers supplied power to operate machinery. Hundreds of factories operated mills powered by rivers. The Ganges is the greatest river on Asia's Indian subcontinent. It is sacred to the millions of followers of the Hindu religion. For thousands of years, Hindus have worshipped the river as a goddess, Ganga Ma (Mother Ganges). Hindus believe the river’s water purifies the soul and heals the body. Millions of people use the Ganges every day for bathing, drinking, and industry.

Answer 2

Answer: If we take a map of India we can see many cities surrounded by rivers and with many water bodies. Such cities are earning a good profit and sometimes they are facing many problems also due to these water bodies. You can clearly see such cities namely Kolkata, Maharashtra, southern states such as Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and many more states. You can also go through many researches and find out the city name if you want. For example, there are many cities in the northern part of India such as those of north eastern states.
