The Jeong Nala, also called Jiwan Nala[1] and Nacho Chu,[2] and called Xidagou (Chinese: 西大沟; pinyin: Xī dà gōu) by China, a tributary of the Shyok River (which in turn is a tributary of Indus River), flows from the disputed Aksai Chin region administered by China to Ladakh in India. It originates at the eastern edge of the Karakoram Range and flows west. It finally confluences in the Indian administered area with the Burtsa Nala on Darbuk–Shyok–DBO Road (DSDBO Road), and Burtsa Nala itself falls into Shyok River after flowing 7 km south. After the confluence of Jeong Nala with Burtsa Nala, the entire course of river flows along the DSDBO Road to Shyok village.
