Detailed Solution

The peninsular rivers are called seasonal because their flow depends upon rainfall. Peninsular rivers are not perennial rivers, hence they have a seasonal character. They only flow during the rainy season because they are dependent on rainfall for their water flow. They can be found in arid regions where evaporation is more common than precipitation. Narmada, Tapti, Krishna, Kaveri, Godavari, and Mahanadi are a few notable non-perennial rivers. Krishna, Kaveri, Godavari, and Mahanadi run east-west across the rift valley.
