Mayur River
The Mayur River located in Bangladesh, close to the south and southwestern boundary of the metropolitan area of Khulna, and receives most of the drainage from the city.[1][2] The river is obstructed by sediment buildup, and its natural tidal flow is prevented by gates.[3] The Mayur is a former distributary of the Ganges.
