Chambal River • Chambal River is the largest southern tributary of the Yamuna River and ultimately forms part of the Ganga river system. • It originates near Janapav Hills (Vindhyan Range) in Madhya Pradesh and flows through Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh before joining the Yamuna. • The National Chambal Sanctuary spans three states- MP, Rajasthan and UP. • Chambal supports the largest viable breeding population of the Critically Endangered Gharial in India. • Other flagship species here include the Ganges River Dolphin, mugger crocodile, Indian skimmer and several freshwater turtle species. • Despite multiple dams, Chambal is considered to have the highest conservation value among rivers of the Gangetic basin due to its relatively less-polluted waters and rich aquatic biodiversity. • Major dams on Chambal (upstream to downstream): Gandhi Sagar – Rana Pratap Sagar – Jawahar Sagar – Kota Barrage. • The Chambal ravines are famous for badland topography formed by severe soil erosion.
