Brahmaputra River
Assam's major artery
The Brahmaputra River is one of Asia's major waterways, flowing from Tibet through northeastern India and Bangladesh before emptying into the Bay of Bengal.
It joins the Ganges to form a vast delta.
The river is known for seasonal flooding and supports millions of people along its banks.
