The Subarnarekha River, also known as Swarna Rekha, originates near Ranchi in Jharkhand. It flows through Jharkhand, West Bengal, and Odisha before reaching the Bay of Bengal. The river's name derives from Sanskrit words meaning "Streak of Gold." Historically, gold was mined near Piska village at its source. Traces of gold particles continue to be found in its riverbed, and local communities have practiced traditional gold panning along the river.
