Mizoram Rivers comprises a major division of the geography of Mizoram. It is assisted mainly by heavy rainfalls during monsoon seasons and intermittent rainfall during the year; nearly all of the Rivers in Mizoram are perpetual in nature.
While many more rivers and streams flow through the hilly ranges of Mizoram, the most important and constructive rivers are the Tlawng (185.15 in length), Tuirial (11.53 in length) and Tuivawl (72.45 in length) which course through the northern territory and ultimately join the Barak River in Assam.
Rivers like Mat (90.16 in length), Tuichang (120.75 in length) and Tuipui (86.94 in length) fall in the southern part of Mizoram. The rivers of Mizoram are the chief source of water for the people of the state. The perpetual rivers of the state nourish the lush green vegetation of Mizoram.
