River Bhairab from Khulna City

The Bhairab (Bengali: ভৈরব নদী) is a river in south-western Bangladesh, a distributary of the Ganges.[1] It passes through Khulna, dividing the city into two parts. Bhairab River originates from Tengamari border of Meherpur District and passes through Jessore city.[2] The river is approximately 160 kilometres (100 mi) long and 91 metres (300 ft) wide. Its average depth is 1.2 to 1.5 metres (4 to 5 ft) and with minimal water flow, it has plenty of silt.[3]
