Lupta Saraswati by Maniratna Mukhopadhyay [Hardcover]

Saraswati in Prayag is a famous river associated with Hindu Mansa. Mani Ratna Mukhopadhyay traced the past existence of the river in his research book 'Lupta Saraswati'. The book has a veritable account of the river that originates in the Bandarpuch mountain range, crosses the Himalayas at Adi Badri in Haryana, flows in different directions at different times, and falls into the Arabian Sea. For two decades, the author has trekked with teams of explorers ranging from high snow-capped peaks and glaciers, through the interior of the Himalayas to the deserts of Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, the Gulf of Khambat in Gujarat, Dwarka, and four estuaries in the Rann of Kutch. Find out what research has been done in different universities, where excavations are going on, and what is kept in the museums. In this rare book, the lives of the discoverers are combined with the amazing story of the Saraswati River's transition to divinity.
