The headstreams are Alaknanda and Bhagirathi

  • The river naturally starts in the Himalaya mountains at Gomukh, the Gongotri Glacier's terminus.
  • The transparent waters of the Bhagirathi are naturally produced when the ice of this active glacier melts. The Bhagirathi properly meets the Alaknanda as it slides gently down the Himalayas, creating the Ganges.
  • Thus, the two active headstreams of river are Alaknanda and Bhagirathi, which adequately meet at Devprayag to form the river.
