Pench River

The Pench River is a vital watercourse flowing through central India, primarily through Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. It plays a crucial role in supporting local ecosystems, agriculture, and communities by providing water for irrigation, drinking, and maintaining biodiversity. The river is known for its lush surroundings and is famous for the Pench National Park, home to diverse wildlife including tigers and other animals. Its flow varies seasonally, influenced by monsoon rains, and it ultimately joins larger rivers, contributing to the region's hydrological network. The Pench River is essential for sustaining both nature and human livelihoods in the area.
