The Ramnadi is a river in Pune District and is a tributary of the Mula. It originates in the Sahyadris near Khatpewadi, north-west of Pune city. The river flows through the Bhugaon, Bhukum, Bavdhan, Pashan, Baner and Aundh areas of Pune city. It is defined as a brook by the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC).
The width of the river channel has decreased due to illegal constructions and dumping of construction debris. These constructions are yet to be removed. Many rallies have been held to save the river. However, it has been turned into a sewage canal due to dumping of garbage on its banks. Many local residents are in fact unaware of the river's existence.[1] Due to the river's deteriorating condition, the PMC has undertaken a project to beautify this river. The proposal includes development of a garden along the banks of the river.[2]
The Pashan Lake and Manas lake are the major water bodies on the river basin.
