Kolhapur and Ichalkaranji are on the banks of the Panchganga River,

which serves as the primary supply of water for various uses. The
Maharashtra Panchganga River passes through Kolhapur’s borders.
It begins at Prayag Sangam. The Panchganga is made up of four
streams: Kasari, Kumbhi, Tulsi, and Bhogawati.

Students from Burhanpur, or 3.61% of them, conducted research on
the Tapti River.

The Tapti River (or Tapi) is a river in central India that runs westward
before discharging into the Arabian Sea. It is situated to the south

of the Narmada River. The river flows across Maharashtra, Gujarat,
and Madhya Pradesh. The Sabarmati River was visited by 1.10%
of the students from Ahmedabad. It rises in the Aravalli Range of
Rajasthan’s Udaipur District and flows south-west across Rajasthan

and Gujarat to reach the Gulf of Khambhat of the Arabian Sea.
Bhopal accounted for the remaining 1.25% of students. The Betwa
River was visited by these students. The Betwa River, along with the
Charmanwati River, is mentioned in the epic Mahabharata. It springs

in the Vindhya Range slightly north of Narmadapuram in Madhya
Pradesh and runs northeast through Madhya Pradesh, Orchha, and
Uttar Pradesh to the sea.
