Rivers In Ajmer

Ajmer Rivers are not many in number. The Ajmer district is often considered to be devoid of rivers.Mainly the river Banas, which flows along the southeastern boundary of the district, waters Ajmer, located at the center of Rajasthan .

This river is the sole source of water for irrigation in the Samur pargana in the region. Banas is also considered to be one of the major rivers of Rajasthan. There are also four other seasonal rivers in Ajmer, namely, Sabarmati, Saraswati, Khari and Dhai. These four rivers of Ajmer appear to be rivulets due to the dry weather of the district.

Khari and Dhai are the tributaries of the river, Banas. Khari River originates from the hill area near Deogarh of Rajsamand District. The river joins Banas near Chosala village in the Ajmer District. Dhai River originates from the southeastern slope of the Aravali Range near the Nasirabad Tehsil of Ajmer. The river flows across the district and joins Banas River near Bisalpur village.

Sabarmati and Saraswati are two other non-perennial rivers in Ajmer District. These rivers remain dry during most of the year. During monsoon, the water level of the rivers rises. Water of these rivers is potable, which is used for drinking across the district.
