Every river drawn on the map, flowing from source to sea. Tap a river for its source, mouth, tributaries and the story India tells about it. Switch on the dams, barrages, canals and river links people have built on them, the great lakes and wetlands they feed, and the waterfalls and sangams (confluences) along the way.
River lines: Natural Earth (public domain) and OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL), simplified for the web, so small bends are smoothed and tiny tributaries are left out. Lengths, years and project details come from general knowledge, are approximate, and are not source-checked. Project pins mark the general site, and the Manas river and canal and link routes are hand-drawn schematic lines, not surveyed alignments. Basemap tiles © OpenStreetMap. Boundaries shown on the basemap are not authoritative.
