River Churni is a stream in the Nadia district of the Indian state of West Bengal.[1] It is a distributary of the Mathabhanga River, which in turn is a distributary of the Padma River at Munshiganj in the Kushtia District of Bangladesh. The Mathabanga divides into two rivers, the Ichamati and the Churni, near Majhdia in Nadia district.[2]
