[edit] Merger of Ghaghara and Karnali

This is the same river known by two different names in two different countries. Why can't they be discussed in a single article? --Bejnar 02:23, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

I think it should not be merged into one but linked together. Karnali River and the name in particuliar has a lot of significance to the people of Nepal, especially in the mid-west where the official name of a zone is Karnali and unofficially the region known as Karnali Region. Thus, I suggest it be linked together but not merged into one. Dolpali 05:58, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

The name of River Karnali should not be merged as "Ghagara". Ghagara is in India and Karnali is in Nepal, although water in the river is same. Karnali is the name from where it originates as a River, river first flows through Nepal. It should be appropriate to merge "Ghagara" to Karnali River. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.148.97.69 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Kali and West Rapti important tributaries

The Kali River (western boundary of Nepal) joins the Ghaghara inside India, as does the (West) Rapti River that drains an area between the larger Karnali and Gandaki basins. High flows on the Rapti have caused serious floods in India and the river has been the subject of proposals for flood control projects. 76.80.9.100 16:02, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
