The Joint Rivers Commission of Bangladesh and India has identified ten rivers shared by the two countries that they wish to manage together. These are the Moharoshi, Uddakhali, Sonkosh, Mohadeo, Harivanga, Chela, Luva, Loha, Kamjhora and Khasimara, located in northern Bangladesh, with the Indian states of Meghalaya and Assam across the border.
Bangladesh and India already have 54 officially recognised shared transboundary rivers. The formal identification of these ten more as transboundary rivers by the Joint Rivers Commission (JRC) will enable the two countries to work together to manage them.
