Correct Answer: Radial. Rivers of South India mainly carry an essential drainage system; A while northern India makes the Himalayan rivers delta tree. The peninsular rivers are characterised by fixed course, absence of meanders and nonperennial flow of water. The drainage system is older than the Himalayan one. The Western Ghats running close to the western coast act as the water divide between the major Peninsular rivers. Most of the major Peninsular rivers except Narmada and Tapi flow from west to east. The other major river systems of the Peninsular drainage are Mahanadi, Godavari, Krishna and Kaveri.
