Rajasthan High Court sought a reply from top officials over alleged encroachment on the Gambhiri River floodplain, which supplies water to Ghana Bird Sanctuary. The Gambhir River, also called the Utangan River, is a seasonal river in Rajasthan, flowing only during the rainy season. It originates in the Aravalli Hills near Hindaun and flows south to north before joining the Yamuna in Uttar Pradesh. It spans 288 km and forms the Rajasthan-Uttar Pradesh boundary. The river becomes perennial after meeting the Parbati and supplies water to Keoladeo National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
