Indravati River

Indravati River is a tributary of the Godavari River in India. Its source is in the Dandakaranya Range, at the hilltop village of Mardiguda, Thuamula Rampur Block, Kalahandi district, Odisha. The river follows a westerly path to Jagadalpur, Chhattisgarh, then goes south, before eventually uniting with the Godavari at the borders of Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, and Telangana states. The river flows for 535 kilometres (332 mi) and has a drainage area of 41,665 square kilometres (16, 087 mi2). At various stages of its course, the river forms the boundary between Chhattisgarh and Maharashtra, and much of its course is through dense forests. It is sometimes known as the "lifeline" of the Kalahandi, Nabarangapur, and Bastar districts. The Indravati River is the site of the Indravati Dam, the largest in eastern India. A further five hydroelectric projects were planned, but these were cancelled due to ecological reasons.
