Bindal River

Bindal River (also Bindal Rao) flows through Dehradun in Uttarakhand, India, and is fed by a number of springs at the base of Mussoorie ridge.^[1]

Due to unchecked development and encroachment around the river, the river water has been contaminated with hazardous pollutants and chemicals.^[2] In 2019, the government of Uttarakhand initiated a plan to revive the water body.^[3]
