Abstract: *Narmada: River of Beauty* by Amrit Lal Vegad is a vivid travelogue chronicling the author’s eleven-year journey on foot along the Narmada River, from its source to the Arabian Sea. Through rich prose and sketches, Vegad captures the river’s natural beauty, historical depth, and spiritual significance. He recounts dramatic adventures, serene landscapes, and encounters with villagers, tribals, and wildlife. The book reflects on changes brought by the Sardar Sarovar project, which submerged villages and ecosystems. More than a chronicle of a river, it’s a tribute to the life, culture, and timeless charm of one of India’s most sacred river valleys.
