Dohan river

The 883rd longest river in the world

km

The Dohan river (IAST: Vadhūsarā), is a rain-fed river that originates at Mandholi village near Neem Ka Thana in Sikar district of Rajasthan and then disappears in Mahendragarh district in Haryana where it used to be a tributary of Sahibi River, which in turn is a still flowing tributary of Yamuna. Its canalised portion in one of its paleochannel in Haryana is called the "Outfall Drain No 8". At Mandholi there is a small gomukh from where the river begins. Several Ochre Coloured Pottery culture sites (also identified as late Harappan phase of Indus Valley Civilisation culture) have been found along the banks of Krishnavati river, Sahibi river, Dohan river (tributary of Sahibi river) and Sota River (another tributary of sahibi river that merges with Sahibi at Behror in Alwar district).

Flows through: India.
