Social Studies Give geographical reasons for the following

There are fewer natural ports on the eastern coast of India due to the following reasons:
i. The Eastern Coast of India borders the Bay of Bengal and has formed as a result of depositional work of rivers.
ii. Due to the gentle slope of the land, east flowing rivers flow at lower velocities and deposit the sediments at the coast. As a result, deltas are found along this coast and make the coast shallow.
iii. A natural port can only develop where there is a deep sea and an indent coast line.

→ Monsoon Source: During the rainy season, these rivers receive heavy rainfall, which maintains a high volume of water flow.
→ Glacial Source: During the summer season, when there is no rain, the snow and glaciers in the high Himalayan peaks melt, ensuring a continuous supply of water.
→ Continuous Flow: Because they have dual sources of water (rain in monsoon and snow-melt in summer), these rivers never go dry and are called perennial.
