Yamuna enters Himachal Pradesh at Khadar Majri in Sirmaur district. It is the Eastern-most river of Himachal Pradesh. Its tributaries are Tons, Pabbar and Giri or Giri Ganga.

The Giri Ganga rises from near Kupar peak just above Jubbal town in Shimla district, Tons from Yamunotri and Pabbar from Chandra Nahan Lake near the Chansal peak in Rohru tehsil of Shimla district. Its total catchment area in Himachal Pradesh is 2,320 km. It leaves the state near Tajewala and enters into the Haryana state.

The area drained by the Yamuna system includes Giri-Satluj water divide in Himachal Pradesh to the Yamuna Bhilagana water divide in Gharwal.

Hatni kund in haryana

Hathni Kund is in Haryana, built on a raised plinth overlooking the Yamuna. The river Yamuna flows into the plains of Haryana after crossing over the last lap of the Himalayan foothills at Paonta Sahib. The waters of the western Yamuna Canal are collected in the barrage at Tajewala, 5 km away from Hathni Kund.

chardhams of uttarakhand

Yamunotri is one of the Chardhams of Uttarakhand.


The other three being Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath.

Such is the significance of Yamunotri that is to be visited first among the Char Dhams of Uttarakhand.

The other reason of Yamunotri being visited before the other dhams is that the Char Dham Yatra is essentially done from left to right.

For large-scale natural water storage in the floodplains of Delhi's Yamuna

Using the floodplain of yamuna

The top layer of accumulated sand washed down by floods over millions of years, makes river


floodplains into giant aquifers. We propose a scheme for the natural storage of excess monsoon

river-water discharge in the extensive and deep sand top layer of the floodplain of the river. The

excess monsoon discharge can be used for a regulated inundation of an embanked area of the

floodplain – to soak in and store the water. This storage can then be used for the withdrawal of

water during the dry months. We illustrate this by an evaluation of the potential of the Yamuna

floodplains in the National Capital Territory of Delhi and show that there can be an annual yield of

600–900 MCM of water, which is three-fourths the total water supply to Delhi. This makes it an

invaluable natural resource potentially worth about Rs 6000–9000 crores a year of non-invasive use.
