The Territorial Army recently established a new task force dedicated to the rejuvenation and protection of the Gomti River.
About Gomti River:

Course:
Itoriginates from the Gomat Taal, also called Fulhaar Jheel, which is found near the Madho Tanda in the Pilibhit district in Uttar Pradesh.
The river drains the area betweenrivers Ramganga and Sharda.
After flowing southwards through the districts of Lucknow, Barabhanki, Sultanpur, Faizabad, and Jaunpur, it joins the River Ganga.
The river extends to about 900 km. It drains a basin of about 7,240 square miles (18,750 square km).
It is a perennial river, characterised by sluggish flow throughout the year, except during the monsoon season, when heavy rainfall causes a manifold increase in the runoff.
Significant tributaries of the Gomti include the Sai River, Chowka River, Kathina River, and Saryu River.
