what is the starting point of indus river
Indus River The Indus River (locally called SindhÅ«) is one of the longest rivers in Asia. Originating in the Tibetan Plateau in the vicinity of Lake Manasarovar, the river runs a course through the Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir, towards Gilgit-Baltistan and the Hindukush ranges, and then flows in a southerly direction along the entire length of Pakistan to merge into the Arabian Sea near the port city of Karachi in Sindh.[1][2] It is the longest river and national river of Pakistan.[3]
Indus Valley Civilisation The Indus Valley Civilisation (IVC), or Harappan Civilisation,[1] was a Bronze Age civilisation (3300–1300 BCE; mature period 2600–1900 BCE)[2] mainly in the northwestern regions of South Asia, extending from what today is northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India.[3] Along with Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, it was one of three early cradles of civilisations of the Old World, and of the three, the most widespread.[4][note 1]
