Mahi

The Mahi has its source in the Vindyan Hills of Madhya Pradesh. It flows southwest through the Banswara and Anand districts and finally, making an estuary, merges into the Gulf of Khambat.

Most of the rivers draining the west-facing scarp of the Western Ghats, particularly in the Konkan coastal belt, are short and swift-flowing over a humid tropical

landscape at 100 to 280 metres above sea level along narrow to broad V shaped valleys. These small streams have great erosive capacity. They display a parallel pattern of drainage, characterised by sharp bends, and fall into the Arabian Sea through estuaries. Some of the important streams draining the western slopes of the Western Ghats are Ulhas, Savitri, Vashist, Netravati, Periyar and Pambiyar. Some of these streams make waterfalls and rapids when they descend their steep gorges.
