The Himalayan Rivers ,The Peninsularor Deccan Rivers
1. The Himalayan rivers rise in the snow-covered mountains as such they flow
throughout the year. The mountains in which the Deccan rivers rise are not
snow-covered. Hence they dry up in summer.
2. The Himalayan rivers flow in leveled Northern
Plains. Therefore, they are quite useful for navigation and irrigation. The
Peninsular rivers flow on the uneven rocky surface. Therefore they are neither
navigable nor useful for irrigation.
3. The Himalayan rivers bring with them fertile
alluvium which they deposit in the Indo-Gangetic Plains. The Peninsular rivers
do not bring with them enough alluvium. As the current is swift so the deposition
activity is negligible.
