Abstract
Gita Mehta represents Narmada River as both the physical entity and the mythological
construct, which became supplementary and complementary to each other. The human
relationship within a community and with the members of other communities is closely
associated with Narmada River which functions as the binding force to different
communities. Thus, the mythical and spiritual concepts that the diverse social
communities create about the Narmada associate them, as the basic source of such
construct is the same.
