Give a brief description about the eastern ghats.

Instructions:
Explain the location, extent, and well-known features of the eastern ghats (point-wise)

Solution:

• The eastern ghats are situated in the eastern part of the Indian peninsula.
• They extend from the Mahanadi valley in the north and the Nilgiris in the south.
• The eastern ghats are not continuously structured. Therefore, various rivers such as the Godavari and Krishna move through the eastern ghats and drain into the Bay of Bengal.
• The eastern ghats are comparatively shorter than the western ghats.
• The average height of eastern ghats is 600 metres.
