Kusabhadra River forms the complex of river systems which form the distributaries of the Mahanadi River. It branches off from the Kuakhai River, which is a distributary of the Mahanadi, at Balianta and flows in a south western direction for 46 miles before sinking in to the Bay of Bengal near Ramachandi Temple, 15 miles east of Puri in the Khordha District of Orissa.[1][2]

Dhanua River is its main tributary, bringing in water to its parent body.
