Kosi river and Damodar river are known to be called the “house of sorrows”.
Explanation:
- These names are given to these rivers due to the fact that Kosi river (one of the Himalayan tributaries that flow in eastern Bihar and Kolkata) and Damodar river( one the off-shoot tributaries of the Ganges that flows through Kolkata and Bangladesh) tend to overflow and destroy nearby cities and are one reoccurring seasonal disasters.
- The rivers bring water and fertile soil to plains, however, during the monsoon they bring disaster and ruin the agriculture and life of people and animals in the neighboring areas.
