The Northern Plains

In Class 9 Geography, this topic explains how the Northern Plains were formed by the alluvial deposits of the Indus, Ganga and Brahmaputra river systems. Students study their broad extent, level relief and major divisions, including the Punjab Plains, Ganga Plain and Brahmaputra Plain. The topic also introduces the Bhabar, Terai, Bhangar and Khadar regions, helping learners understand soil, water availability, agriculture, dense settlement, transport and the impact of floods in this important physical region of India.

  1. Where slope is low, drainage is weak and surface is level
  2. Where steep mountain slopes exist
  3. Where sea cliffs exist
  4. Where permanent glaciers exist
View options
  1. River systems deeply influence land use
  2. Plateau minerals alone support farming
  3. Sea tides are the main cause of farming

View options
  1. They show the beginning of river deposition as rivers enter plains from mountains
  2. They show growth of marine corals
  3. They prove cooling of lava
  4. They form permanent ice caps
View options
