Keleghai River originates at Baminigram, near Dudhkundi, under Sankrail police station, in Jhargram subdivision of Paschim Medinipur district in the Indian state of West Bengal.

It is 121 kilometres (75 mi) long. The steep slope of the river in Guptamani and Sankrail causes floods. The river has been so named by the Lodhas.[1]
