Description:	Rivers are sites for origin and diversity of human civilisations and any change in their course/source of water has a great impact on cultural development. Many a great civilisation has vanished in history due to the changes in the river systems. Integrated study of river system is an important domain for earth scientists, and lost rivers remain a subject of debate and contention. The existence of lost prehistoric River Saraswati, one of the sacred rivers of India along which great Harappan Civilization developed, is also a topic of debate within the scientific community. Geoscientific studies have been carried out extensively by different workers on various aspects. Professor K.S. Valdiya, a noted teacher, scholar and scientist, is associated with the geological studies of River Saraswati since long and has also drawn excellent scientific conclusions from ancient Indian literature and archaeological studies
