Most of these rivers are heavily silted and dry up in the lean season, mainly because water is diverted upstream; parts of some have vanished under encroachment.

Where this river is

The study names this river, but more than one river in Bangladesh carries the name.

At least 12 rows named ইছামতি (e.g. #55 Khulna, #56 Manikganj, #57 Dinajpur, #58 Pabna, #59 Bogura, #60 Mymensingh, #61 Dhaka-Manikganj, #62 Rangamati, #63-64 Sirajganj, #65 Munshiganj-Narayanganj, #66 Satkhira).

Because the study does not say which one it means, this river is listed but not placed on the map.
