The Survey of India Toposheet numbers 47 G/15, 47 K/3 on the scale of 1: 50,000 were used for the present study. Stream ordering method as suggested by the Strahler has been employed. According to morphometric analysis of the Uttar Mand river basin, it is a fifth-order basin that is transitioning from an early mature to an older stage of the fluvial geomorphic cycle. The drainage pattern of the basin is dendritic in nature. A particular order's mean channel segment length is more than the next lower order but less than the next higher order. The relationship between stream order and mean stream length provides a group of points that lie roughly along a curve line, indicating that the area is not subject to severe structural influence.
