You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:Confluence of the Lachen and Lachung c.png|thumb|right|250px|Confluence of the [[Lachen River|Lachen]] and Lachung Rivers c. 1885]]
The '''Lachung River''' is a tributary of the [[Teesta River]] located in the East Indian state of [[Sikkim]]. It is a chief tributary of the Teesta, which is an important river in Sikkim along with [[Rangeet River]]. The village of [[Lachung]] is perched on the craggy bank of the river approximately ((convert|23|km)) from [[Chungthang]]. It is at Chungthang where the Lachung and [[Lachen River|Lachen]] rivers converge and give rise to the Teesta.<ref name = NIC>((cite web|url=http://sikkim.nic.in/sws/poi_nor.htm|title=North Skikkim|publisher=[[National Informatics Centre]]|accessdate=12 August 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150821103458/http://sikkim.nic.in/sws/poi_nor.htm|archive-date=21 August 2015|url-status=dead))</ref> The river is ((convert|2500|m))  above sea level.

==Course==
The river has its source in a lake, deep in the [[Himalaya]]s near the Indo-China border. The ragged reaches of the mountain make the place almost inaccessible. From here, the river flows down in a south-westerly direction and joins with another unknown river at a place just above Lachung village. The tributary river is also a slender one with little water in the winter. The river continues its course downwards through the Lachung valley till it meets River Lachen near Chungthang. After the confluence, it takes the name of River Teesta and flows further down. It becomes wider while travelling to Singhik and drops from altitude of ((convert|1550|to|750|m)). At [[Singhik]] another tributary river joins it, called the Talung Chug. After this point the river flows to [[Dikchu]] through a deep ravine and drops to a height of ((convert|550|m)). Then it cambers and reaches [[Singtam]], which is at a height of ((convert|200|m)). After [[Rangpo]], the Teesta widens and meets the River Rangeet at Melli Bazaar.

==Tributaries==
The Lachung has one main tributary, with which it unites near Lachung village. The water of the river is crystal clear and pure. The sparkling waters are the major source of living in the surrounding villages. There are a number of waterfalls and subsidiary streams across this river. In lachung town, there's banned package drinking water and total restrictions for usage. The crystal clear lachung water is used for drinking
