The Kangsabati River system (also variously known as the Kasai and Cossye, and not to be confused with the Kasai River in Africa), rises from the Chota Nagpur plateau in the state of Jharkhand, India and passes through the districts of Purulia, Bankura and Paschim Medinipur in West Bengal before draining in the Bay of Bengal.

Mukutmanipur, Midnapore, and Kharagpur are towns on or near the banks of this river.
