Difference between east flowing and west flowing rivers:
(1) As the naming suggest the east flowing rivers have their course of flowing towards east and fall into the east side sea of India (i.e. Bay of Bengal), and west flowing rivers have their course of action towards west and finally fall into the west side sea of India (i.e The Arab Sea).
(2) The west flowing rivers are generally longer and have lower slope gradient than east flowing rivers resulting in formation of delta at their mouth while east flowing rivers make estuaries.
(3) Most of the east flowing rivers are originated from Either Himalayas or eastern slopes of western ghats where west flowing rivers are generally originates from either Vindhyas range and central India or western slope of western ghats.
(4) The east flowing rivers are both perennial (those who originate from Himalayas e.g Ganges, Yamuna, Brahmaputra etc) and seasonal (those who originates from western ghats and other places e.g. Mahanadi, Godavari, Krishna etc). But west flowing rivers are seasonal only e.g. Narmada, Tapti, Sabarmati etc.
