c6.s13.2

Geographically south-eastern Rajputana is not much different from Northern Gujarat. Eastwards it abuts on the Malwa plateau. This though largely formed by the basaltic lava has earlier geological formations as well, which all go to make up the peculiar physiographic features of this region. Western Rajputana is mostly a desert and the river beds are completely filled with sand, which hide all earlier deposits, if any. In North-eastern Rajputana, however, the climate is a little dry than in the west, and it is also geographically different, so that earlier deposits are exposed.
