What is the difference between the Himalayan rivers and the rivers in the deccan plateau?

Answer 1

Geological history and diversity in phyiogegarphical aspects of our nation has resulted in the arise of diverse riverine systems in our subcontinent.

The source of water and their draining area has been the chief factor for diverse characteristc the riverse sysytems.

Himalayan rivers are perenial rivers as they drain through out the year by getting water from rainfall in rain season and melting of glaciers in summer.The catchment area of the northern river systems are extensive.They form wide ,large fertile plains along their course.Their swift movement and velocity enabling them to erode large quantities of sediments and forming plains by their depositional.Steep gorges formed by their erosional activities has been harnessing to generate Hydo power.The ever growing feature of the Himalayas has making them youth ful and active.In lower course they are useful for water transport.Due to existemce level palins inceasent ,intensive rain fall often results in floods.

Answer 2

Himalayan rivers are snow-fed and have high silt content due to the rugged terrain, resulting in turbulent flows and wide river valleys. Rivers in the Deccan Plateau are rain-fed and have lower silt content, with gentler flows and narrower valleys. Additionally, Himalayan rivers are perennial with water throughout the year, while some rivers in the Deccan Plateau may dry up during the summer months.
