'''Jadh Ganga''', ({{lang-hi|जाध गंगा}}) also called [[Jahnavi River]] is a tributary of [[Bhagirathi River|Bhagirathi]] in [[Uttarakhand]] state of [[India]].<br />

<br />
Jadh Ganga rises, north of [[Mana Pass]], from '''Lambi glacier''' where the river is known as '''Lambi Gad''' ('''Lambi river'''). This area administered by India lies near the [[Line of Actual Control|LAC]], the [[Sino-Indian border dispute|disputed defacto border]] between India and China, which is also claimed by China as part of [[Zanda County]] of [[Tibet]]. <br />
<br />
Lambi Gad flows from south to north, and after it takes a westward turn it is called the '''Mendi Gad''' (''''Mendi river''', also '''Mana Gad''' or '''Mana river'''). The Mendi Gad, while continuing west, at ~3 km confluences with a south-to-north flowing rivulet which originates from the ''Surali Bamak'' glacier in the south, at further ~2 km confluences with a south-to-north flowing rivulet which originates from the ''Tara Bamak'' glacier in the south, at further ~2 km confluences with a south-to-north flowing '''Gull Gad''' ('''Gull river''') which originates from the ''Mana Bamak'' glacier in the south, at further ~8 km confluences with a northeast-to-southwest flowing '''Nilapani Gad''' ('''Nilapani river''') which originates from the ''Nilapani Bamal'' glacier in the northeast. <br />
<br />
After this confluence of point Mendi Gad and Nilapani Gad, the ''Mendi Gad'' is known as the ''Nilapani Gad'', which continues another ~5 km west and confluences with the northeast-to-southwest flowing '''Jadhang Gad''' ('''Jadhang river''') at ''[[Naga, Uttrakhand|Naga]]''.<!-- Per wiki guidelines, retain redlink to encourage article creation. --> Sites along the Jadhang River are [[Sang,_Uttarakhand|Jadhang]] (Sang), [[Pulam Sumdo]], [[Jadhang peak]]<!-- Per wiki guidelines, retain redlink to encourage article creation. --> (5290 m), [[Sonam peak]],<!-- Per wiki guidelines, retain redlink to encourage article creation. --> (5262 m), [[Tirpani]],<!-- Per wiki guidelines, retain redlink to encourage article creation. --> [[Pulam Sumda]], [[Tsangchok]],<!-- Per wiki guidelines, retain redlink to encourage article creation. --> and [[Sumla]] near LAC.<br />
<br />
After the Naga, the river is known as Jadh Ganga till it exits [[Nelang]] valley, after which it is also known as the '''Jahanvi River'''. The Jahanvi River (Gadh Ganga) then confluences with the [[Bhagirathi River]] at [[Bhaironghati]] just west of [[Gangotri]].<br />
