Wikipedia text:

River beas - The Beas River (Punjabi: ਬਿਆਸ) is the second easternmost of the rivers of the Punjab. The river rises in the Himalayas in central Himachal Pradesh, India, and flows for some 290 miles (470 km) to the Sutlej River in western Punjab state.

The river begins at the Rohtang Pass in the state of Himachal Pradesh, merges with the Sutlej at Harike Pattan south of Amritsar in Punjab, India VIA Mandi. The Sutlej continues into Pakistani Punjab and joins the Chenab River at Uch to form the Panjnad River; the latter joins the Indus River at Mithankot. The waters of the Ravi, Beas and Sutlej rivers are allocated to India under the Indus Waters Treaty between India and Pakistan.
