River Tawi (Surya Putri)

Sent in by Man Mohan Munshi Ji. He writes:

River Tawi ( referred in ancient literature as Surya Putri) originates near Kaplas Mountains and flows westward between Jug Dhar and Trisul Dhar in a westerly direction till Udhampur where it takes a southerly bend across the Sivalik range  and again resumes a westerly course passing along the Jammu City  till it joins Chenab River in Sialkot District in Pakistan.
