Gambhir River

With its origination point is in the hills nearby Karauli village in Sawai Madhopur District in Rajasthan state of India, famous Gambhir River crosses through the state until it enters in Utter Pradesh. It keeps on changing its directions while flowing in the state. It first enters in the Utter Pradesh and then flows back to Rajasthan until it takes another entry into Utter Pradesh to merge with the Yamuna River.

Course

Gambhir River may not have the status of most noticed river on the national level but it has definitely marked an important position in the regional level, especially in the context of the two adjacent states of Rajasthan and Utter Pradesh. The river is main tributary which merges with the famous Yamuna River upon flowing till the Up state. It flows from the southwards area to the northwards in Rajasthan till it reaches to the Kanjoli village (Toda Bhim).

Gambhir River crosses the northeastern portions of Mertha of Roopbas block just before it enters the adjoining Uttar Pradesh state from Rajasthan where it has been originated. Interestingly, this river courses back to Rajasthan near the Catchapaura village at the Dholpur District soon after flowing for a particular distance in the Utter Pradesh.  It forms a boundary with Utter Pradesh & Rajasthan to merge into Yamuna & to complete its zigzag course.

Deeper study of the thorough course of the Gambhir River makes you feel unique approach the river has followed in its course. You literally feel excited the moment you start studying the river’s course with an observation about its roles for areas. The river has greater roles to play for all those areas from where it flows by giving an opportunity as partners of development. It facilitates irrigation options to the areas hence forth its roles in helping the farmers and farming activities with the sufficient water supply can’t be ruled out.

The long stretch of areas in both the states is getting direct benefit from this river. This river is also one of the linking sources for both the states through waters & also resolves one of the major issues of the region i.e. water crisis. The water crisis has been faced by both the states in the absence of this river whose role can’t be underestimated at any point of time for both the states.

Tributaries

Sesa, Kher and Parbati are the main tributaries of Gambhir River. This river has several other tributaries in the course of its flowing just after origin in Rajasthan state to ending into the Utter Pradesh to Rajasthan repeatedly while covers several locations in both the states.

This river plays key roles in providing enough water to the Keoladev Ghana Bird Century in Bharatpur in the Rajasthan state. As Gambhir River is a seasonal river, its flowing is concentrated only for the rainy season.
