The River Aghanashini (also historically the River Merjee) is a river located in India about 18 miles south east of Anjediva Island.[1] Aghanashini is a village to be found at the mouth of the river. The river Aghanashini originates at 'Shankara Honda' in the Sirsi town of Uttara Karnataka. It is one of the virgin rivers of the world. The water from this river flows unobstructed through the western ghats range and then joins the Arabian Sea.
