How is the course of Peninsular rivers generally compared to Himalayan rivers?

Correct answer: More stable and fixed

The direct answer is A: Peninsular rivers generally have more stable and definite courses. The reason is that most of them flow across the old Peninsular Plateau. This plateau is a very ancient landmass made largely of hard rocks, and it has remained comparatively stable for a very long time. Because the land is not being folded and lifted rapidly, river valleys and channels are usually well established. Step by step: first identify the region; second, remember that the Peninsular Plateau is old; third, connect old, stable land with fixed river courses. Himalayan rivers are different because the Himalayas are young, rising mountains, and their channels can be more changeable. Option A is correct because it describes the usual character of these rivers. Option B is wrong because Peninsular rivers do not completely change their courses every year. Option C is wrong because they are not locked in glaciers; many receive rainwater and flow through plateaus and plains. Option D is wrong because rivers normally flow from higher land toward lower land, not from the sea toward mountains. Memory cue: old plateau means relatively fixed course; young mountains mean more changeable valleys.
