Bangali River, Major river system in Rajshahi Division, Bangladesh.
Bangali River is a river system in northern Bangladesh that originates as a branch of the Teesta River in Nilphamari District and splits into multiple channels. The waterway flows through several districts and connects with other water systems across the region.
A major flood in 1787 reshaped many river courses in the region and created the current pattern of the Bangali River system. This event established the waterways that exist in the landscape today.
The river sustains farming and village life across the region through its network of branches that supply water to fields and communities. These waterways have shaped how people settle and work the land throughout the area.
The area is shaped by water traffic and farming activities, so the river is more visible during wetter months. Visitors should know that the banks are prone to erosion and access varies depending on the season.
The river splits into two main branches at Jurigacha, with one branch becoming the Hal-Halia before the two reunite at Bathuabari. Their meeting point marks the beginning of the Fuljhur waterway.
