The Indo-Gangetic Plains are generally thought of as a flat region with no variations, although this is not true. The plains can be classified into four regions on the basis of relief features. The Bhabar is a belt of 8–16 km lying parallel to the slopes of the Sivaliks, where the river descending from the mountains deposit pebbles.
