HUNTER (1879, 2: 139): The Maheshkhálí river [note 1], which forms a part of the eastern boundary of the [Gáro Hills] District, flows a subterranean course for many miles under the limestone rocks which form its bed. It disappears not far from the Yindká peak [note 2], and comes out again near Billar Dhobá (note 3).
