Banganga River, an 240 km long tributary of Gambhir river in India, originates from the hills of Aransar and Bairath (Virat Nagar) in Jaipur region of Rajasthan state and converges with Yamuna near Fatehabad in Agra district of Uttar Pradesh state.[1][2] Its main tributaries are Gumti Nalla and Suri River on right bank, and Sanwan and Palasan Rivers on left bank.[2] Banganga's tributary Sanwan after converging with Tildah river then converges with Banganga river which in turn then converges with the Gambhir river which in turn converges with the Yamuna in Mainpuri district of Uttar Pradesh. Finally, Yamuna converges with Ganges at Triveni Sangam in Prayagraj.[3][4][5]
