The Dangri (Hindi: डांगरी or दांगरी), originating in Siwalik Hills, is a tributary of Ghaggar river in of Haryana state of India.
Origin and route
The Dangri is a small stream that rises in the Siwalik Hills of south-eastern Himachal Pradesh in India.
It flows south where it is joined by two other streams, the Markanda and the Sarsuti, before joining the Ghaggar river near the village of Rasula.
It is thereafter known as the Ghaggar. Further downstream on the banks of the Ghaggar stands an old derelict fort named Sarsuti.
It is believed that Sarsuti is a corruption of the word Sarasvati and that the 6–8 km wide channel of the Sarsuti–Ghaggar system might have once been the Sarasvati River mentioned in the Rig Veda.
