River Sutlej originates from a Lake Called Rakshastal in the Tibetan Plateau

In fact it is believed that the river originates from the Manasarovar Lake, which is very sacred to the Hindus. Perhaps the reason to attribute the origin to Mansarovar Lake is due to the fact that the lake Mansarovar and Rakahsthal are quite close and in the month of August scanty rain makes the ice melt on the surrounding Gurla Mandata mountains and water overflows from the Mansarovar Lake to the Rakshastal. This overflow is considered as the origin to SUTLEJ
