'''Digaru''' is a river originating in the [[Garo Hills|Garo]]-[[Khasi Hills|Khasi]] hills of [[Meghalaya]] state in India, flowing towards the northeast and then meeting the Kopili river and then merging with the [[Brahmaputra]] river. The name Digaru originated from a Kachari/Mech word 'Di' which means water and 'Garo' means the people living in the Garo hills. Hence Digaru literally means "water of the Garo".<br />
This River is known as Umtru River in Meghalaya. There are 3 dams are constructed across this river namely, Umtru Dam, Kyrdemkulai (Umiam st-III) Dam & Nongkhyllem Dam at Ri Bhoi district for hydroelectric power generation.<br />
