Active tectonics of NE Gujarat (India) by morphometric and morphostructural studies of Vatrak River basin

► Eastward tilting of Vatrak and its tributaries is indicated. ► Pronounced elongation of certain tributaries reflects tectonic activity. ► Valley width-height ratios points to relatively rapid uplift. ► Close alignment between lower order streams and active faults have been found. ► Strong role of tectonic element in the evolution of the Vatrak River basin.
