Photos of the various moods of Ganga were downloaded from different sites on the web...many from trekearth.com
The photo at 4.41 is the only form of Saraswati now visible in India. This is at Badrinath. Immediately after that appearance, she merges with the greenish waters of Alakananda and makes her light blue. This merging is named Keshav Prayag.
