Mundeswari river is a small river in West Bengal which causes floods in Hooghly, Purba Medinipur and Howrah districts during the monsoons. Any discharge above 2,000 cubic metres per second (70,000 cu ft/s) downstream of Durgapur Barrage occasionally causes the river to flood.[1] It has been suggested that the banks of rivers such as the Mundeswari should be protected with embankments to prevent floods.[2]
