What is salta sindhu
Answers
Rivers, such as the Sapta Sindhavah play a prominent part in the hymns of the Rig Veda, and consequently in early Historical Vedic religion. Vedic texts have a wide geographical horizon, speaking of oceans, rivers, mountains and deserts. “Eight summits of the Earth, three shore or desert regions, seven rivers.”

Explanation:
From सप्त (sapta, “seven”) + सिन्धु (síndhu, “river, stream”). This expression in English incorporates a grammatical error: Sindhu is the nominative singular; used with "seven", the noun should, of course, be in the plural: Sindhava:/Sindhavas, सप्तसिंधव: (saptasiṃdhava:, “seven rivers”), which is the term used in Sanskrit.
The Sapta Sindhu refers to the
region of the seven sacred rivers mentioned in the Rigveda and in the Zend
Avesta. It comprises of the areas in Punjab and eastern Pakistan. The Vedic
land encompasses the land of the seven rivers extending from Gandhara to
Kurukshetra. The Sapta Sindhu area has the river Saraswati in the east and the
Sindhu in the west. The Satudru, Vipasa, Asikni, Parusni and Vitasta are the
five rivers which lie in between them.
