KALMĀṢI. A river. It was while travelling by the side of this river, that King Drupada reached a Brāhmaṇa village where he happened to meet Upayāja. (M.B. Ādi Parva, Chapter 166). Mahābhārata, Sabhā Parva, Chapter 78, Verse 16 says that it was on the bank of this river that the sage Bhṛgu blessed Yudhiṣṭhira. (Modern scholars believe that Kanmāṣi is the same as the present river Yamunā).
