The List of Top 8 Highest Waterfalls in India
Waterfalls are commonly formed in the upper course of the river. At these times the channel is often narrow and profound. When the river courses over resistant bedrock, erosion happens slowly, while the erosion occurs more rapidly the watercourse increases its velocity at the edge of the waterfall.

I have figured out some new items from your web page about personal computers.
