Lāṅguliya.—This river, also known as the Nāgāvatī, lies between the delta of the Godāvarī and the Mahānadī. It rises in the hills at Kalahandi and flows south through the district of Ganjam to empty itself into the Bay below Chicacole in Madras. It is called the Lāṅgulinī in the Mārkaṇḍeyapurāṇa (LVII, 29). It is the river Lāṅgali mentioned in the Mahābhārata (Sabhāparva, IX. 374).
