South Karo River (Oriya: ଦକ୍ଷିଣ କାରୋ ନଦୀ; Hindi: दक्शिणि कारो नदी) flows through Sundergarh and Keonjhar districts and West Singhbhum in the Indian states of Odisha and Jharkhand respectively.[1][2] The river flows through industrial and iron ore mining areas and Saranda forest before joining the South Koel River in Goilkera block of West Singhbhum district. As a result of its passage through the industrial and mining area the river water gets polluted.[1][2]
