Rispana River
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rivers in India
Rispana River (also Rispana Rao) is a tributary of the Song River that drains central Dehradun in Uttarakhand, India. It emerges from a small spring at the base of Mussoorie ridge near Rajpur village.[1] Currently, the Rispana is contaminated as many of the city's sewage lines empty into the river and it has been encroached upon in many places.[2] [3] In 2018, a plan was initiated by a consortium of agencies of the Government of Uttarakhand to revive the Rispana and Bindal rivers.[3] [4]
