Saraswati River Mystery: Does it Flow as Ghaggar-Hakra Beneath the Earth?

• The legendary Saraswati river, believed to be the Ghaggar-Hakra, mysteriously vanishes across northern India, with its dry bed holding ancient stories.
• The Ghaggar-Hakra, originating in the Shivalik Hills, flows through Punjab and Haryana before disappearing into the Thar Desert sands in Rajasthan.
• Satellite imagery and studies by ISRO and ONGC reveal vast ancient river channels, suggesting massive past water volumes that sustained Harappan sites.
• Climate shifts, weakened monsoons, and tectonic movements diverting tributaries like the Sutlej and Yamuna are proposed reasons for the river drying up.
• Vedic texts describe Saraswati as a mighty, sacred river, and mythology attributes its disappearance to a curse, leading it to flow underground, a phenomenon still sustaining groundwater today.
