its called a meander
Erosion typically occurs on the outer bank of a meander loop due to increased flow velocity and shear stress along the bend. As the water flows along the outer bank, it exerts erosional forces, causing the bank to erode and the meander loop to migrate downstream over time.

Erosion occurs on the inside of a meander as the faster-flowing water erodes and undercuts the bank, resulting in the formation of a cut bank. This erosion contributes to the widening and deepening of the meander loop over time.
An Oxbow lake. It is where a Meander is cut by erosion & the consequent deposition alters the course of the river. The cut off meander forms an Oxbow.
