The BTC comprise of four districts viz.
Kokrajhar, Chirang, Baksa and Udalguri.
The main river in Kokrajhar district is
River Sankosh and at down stream it is called
Gangadhar. River Saralbhanga, Gaurang, Hel
River, Aie, Champamati, Dulani are in Chirang
district. River Beki, Manas, Puthimari,
Kaldia, Pahumara and Borolia in Baksa district.
River Dhansiri, Golandi, Nonoi, Kalandi,
Baranadi, Kulshik, Rowta, Pagala, Ranganadi
are in Udalguri district. Almost all the
rivers of BTC originate from foothills of
Bhutan. During unprecedented flood of 2004
the above river causes extensive damages
by eroding banks and by spilling of riverbanks.
The flood water carry heavy silt which get
deposited in river-bed as well as agricultural
land of some shallow river. Moreover due
to outburst of Kurishu dam in Bhutan during
2004 the debris and silt carried by River
Beki got deposited at the mouth of rver
Manas and Hakua restricted the flow through
the above two rivers. Thus all the discharges
were flown through the river Beki carriage
breach of embankment and river Beki avulsed
with river Kalpani at Naraynguri carry extensive
damages to Baksa district by inundation
and deposit of silt damage to the public
and private utilities in 2005 canalisation
work at Mathanguri of river Manas was carried
out under CRF fund by diverting the flow
of river Beki. Partially to the river Manas
and the closing work at Naraynguri was done
by Barpeta E&D division. Moreover major
breach closing work at Bagribari on river
Puthimari was carried out in 2005 to save
vast area of BTC from inundation closing
of avulsion of river Kalpani was also done
in 2005 under BTC thus a vast area was saved
from erosion and innundation.
