River Lengths and Order
Understanding the lengths of major rivers is essential in geographical awareness. Analysis of Rivers: Godavari: Approximately 1,465 kilometers (910 miles).
Indus (Sindhu): Approximately 3,180 kilometers (1,976 miles), but only a portion lies within India.
Ganga (Ganges): Approximately 2,525 kilometers (1,569 miles).
