Pranahita River, Indian RiverPranhita is the River, which flows on the edge of Gadchiroli district in Maharashtra and Adilabad district in Andhra Pradesh. The name Pranhita is derived from the nature of combined flow of the rivers Painganga and Wainganga. The Painganga River joins Vainganga near Aheri. The river then flows up to Sironcha. The river finally empties into the Godavari River, near Sironcha in Maharashtra.

The River course is principally through the dense forests, which are rich in Sagwan or timber trees. Water transport across the river is used between Sironcha(Maharashtra) and Kaleswaram(Andhra Pradesh).
