Nepal is a country of natural resources. Rivers are our very important national property. They are the boon of nature. Our country is known as the second richest country in the world after Brazil.
Thousands of rivers flow through Nepal . Some rivers begin from the snow capped Himalayas. They are big and always flowing rivers, Koshi, Mechi , Arun, Gandaki, Karnali etc. are some example of these kinds. We can use them in irrigation, producing electricity, for transport, for entertainment etc. We can attract tourists because of these rivers. We can preserve rare water animals in these rivers.
Some others begin from the Mahabharat range, These rivers are also permanent but they have a little water in winter. These rivers are also used for irrigation, running water mills, small scale electric projects etc.
The rest begin from the Siwalik Hills. They are big in the rainy days of summer but dry in winter . They are very dangerous in summer when it rains heavily. We can also use them for irrigation.
They flood in summer and destroy our crops; sweep away our houses. We must be careful then. If we can uses our rivers, we can develop our country.
