Yamuna River
- Yamuna River is the largest and the most important tributary of the Ganga.
- It originates from the Yamunotri glacier on the Bandarpunch Peak in Garhwal in Uttarakhand.
- It enters the plains near Tajewala.
- Tons, a tributary of it, joins it below Kalsi.
- At this site, the water carried by the Tons is twice the water carried by the Yamuna.
- It takes a southerly course up to Mathura and southeasterly in its onward journey up to Prayagraj where it unites with the Ganga.
