The Godavari River is the longest river in India after the Ganges, with a total length of about 1,465 kilometers. Originating from Trimbakeshwar in Maharashtra, the Godavari flows eastward across central India through Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, eventually emptying into the Bay of Bengal. The river is also known as the Dakshina Ganga due to its importance to southern India, providing water for agriculture, irrigation, and hydroelectric projects.
