Renowned as a country of natural beauty, Nepal is also rich in water resources. Rivers rise or begin to flow from mountains or lakes. They flow through mountains, rocks and plain lands. They finally fall into the sea or some other river.
There are a large number of rivers in Nepal. Most of them rise from the Himalayas or high mountains. However, some come from the mountain tops.
A few names of such rivers are: Koshi or Tamor, Gandaki, Karnali, Arun, Trishuli, Rapti, Sunkoshi, Narayani, Seti, etc. Koshi is the biggest of all these rivers. We are rich in these water resources. We can make good income from these rivers. However, only a little part of water resources is in proper usage. It is unfortunate that most of the water flows down uselessly.
Nepal is second rich country in water resources in the world. Brazil is the richest country in water resources in the world. If hydro-electricity could be produced, Nepal would have been counted as advanced of the developing countries. The rivers in Nepal are of great importance because they can play a vital role for the development of the country. They can be used to generate electricity, supply drinking water and provide irrigation.
These are the reasons why the rivers in Nepal are of great value.
