Answer
Saraswati, Amardasi, Mayani and Pushpavati are small rivers flowing through the region.
Saraswati and Amardasi are the major rivers of the region.
In the northern part of the region, the Saraswati River, which flows in a continuous pattern from east to west, forms small and large ravines.
Siddhpur, situated on its northern bank in the middle, is an important town of the region.
Water does not flow for many months in the catchment area of this river upstream east of Siddhpur, so there is a temporary river in that part.
The Amardasi, Mayani, and Pushpavati rivers are also temporary rivers.
Amardasi River is a tributary of Saraswati River.
The Mayani River, which starts from Gharewada village in the north, flows in the southwest and joins the Amardasi River.
The Amardasi River also flows southwest and joins the Saraswati River in the far west. In the central eastern part of the region, gullies are found on both the banks of the river Pushpavati starting from the rocky region in the far east and flowing towards the south.
