Ghaghara (also called the Gogra or the Karnali in Tibet and upper Nepal) is a river in
Nepal and northern
India, one of the largest affluents of the
Ganges. It rises in the southern slopes of the
Himalayas in
Tibet, at an altitude of about 13,000 feet (3962 metres) above sea level. The river flows south through
Nepal as the
Karnali River. In
Uttar Pradesh state the Ghaghara flows in a southeast direction to the town of
Chapra, where, after a course of 570 miles (917 kilometres), it joins the Ganges. The river is one of the most important commercial waterways of Uttar Pradesh.
