Abstract
The study area is lying in Purna river basin and geology of the area is made up of the Deccan trap basalt. Occurrence of the Deccan trap is mostly indicates the presence of flat top surface hills. Topographic and landscapes features of Aurangabad district varies as it comprises high hill, low lying hills and plains. In this study efforts were made to morphometric analysis mainly consisting of quantitative parameters such as linear, aerial, relief aspects with the help of ArcGIS and SIO toposheets. The total length of all the streams is 4683.23 Km., drainage density of the watershed is 1, stream frequency is 0.57, ruggedness number is 0.42, supported by the constant of channel maintenance of that basin is 0.32 km2/km., elongation ratio (Re) is 0.76 and circularity ratio is 0.29 indicates that the river is in mature stage of erosional development.
