The Tons (टौंस नदी) is the largest tributary of the Yamuna.[1] It flows through Garhwal region in Uttarakhand, touching Himachal Pradesh. The Tons thrust is named after this river.
With its source in the 20,722 feet (6,316 m)[2] high Bandarpunch mountain, it is one of the most major perennial Indian Himalayan rivers. In fact, it carries more water than the Yamuna itself, which it meets below Kalsi near Dehradun, Uttarakhand.[3][4]
