Brahmaputra River


The Brahmaputra also called Tsangpo-Brahmaputra, is a trans-boundary river and one of the major rivers of Asia.
From its origin in southwestern Tibet as the Yarlung Zangbo River, it flows across southern Tibet to break through the Himalayas in great gorges and into Arunachal Pradesh where it is known as Dihang.[2] It flows southwest through the Assam Valley as Brahmaputra and south through Bangladesh as the Jamuna. There it merges with the Ganges to form a vast delta. About 1,800 miles (2,900 km) long, the river is an important source for irrigation and transportation.

Not only that, it's one of the greatest & mightiest river in Asia. I have never seen a river with such a great 'personality' like Brahmaputra. I really adore this river since my young days, don't know why.

Its is heart of Assam. It should be preserved for good. Assemese people should try to preserve it as best they can because it is of true value.

Let the Louhitya flow,
Let it flow downcountry.
The thatched huts,
The baked sienna
Brings back the Axomiya in me.
