Almost all major rivers of India
begin their journeys at one of the three main watersheds – The Himalaya and
Karakoram mountain ranges (Northern India); the Sahyadri or the Western Ghats
(Western India); or the Vindhya and Satpura mountain ranges (Central India).
Most of the major rivers of India end up joining the Bay of Bengal or the
Arabian Sea.
Indian Towns on River Banks
India is a country of rivers and most
Indian cities lie on the banks of some of the major rivers in India. Further,
these rivers have their own tributaries and distributaries. It is important
that you know about them because competitive exams like SBI PO, SBI Clerk, IBPS
PO, IBPS Clerk, RRB, etc. often ask questions related to rivers and their
banks.
