Abstract
Combined evaluation of river water quality and quantity, habitat heterogeneity, ecological conditions by assessing biodiversity as well as livelihood options provided by a river can be used as measuring tool for assessment of river health of a snow fed tropical river. Seasonally changing natural flow regime is the key controller and wealthy status of biodiversity with threatened species is the foremost index of the healthy condition.
