Detailed Solution

The river that has water throughout the year is the perennial river. The Latin word "perennis," which implies lasting all year, is where the name "perennial" originates. They are known as perennial rivers since they flow consistently throughout, regardless of the season. Most often, they come from mountains, and the water is supplied by glaciers melting. Due to the vast, snow-capped Himalayan mountain range, these rivers are primarily found in North India. South Indian rivers are not permanent because there are no snow-capped mountains in the region. Ganga is the best example of a perennial river, for instance.
