Ganges River Transportation - Katwa Ganga Ghat
People and large vehicles, including trucks and commercial vehicles, use Ro-Ro (roll-on/roll-off) ferries to cross the Ganges River at Katwa Ghat in Bardhaman, West Bengal, India, on January 10, 2026. Some fishing boats are left floating in the Ganges after being painted with tar. Katwa Ghat is a historic confluence of the Ajay and Bhagirathi (Ganges/Hooghly) rivers, serving as a strategic gateway to Murshidabad and a sacred site for Vaishnavites.
