Along with these, the Peninsula also includes Rajasthan and its desert. Statement 2 is incorrect. The river valleys of the Peninsular block are older than the Himalayan river valleys. The Peninsular rivers are smaller and have a fixed course. They have almost reached their base levels. Therefore, the river valleys are shallow with low gradients
