Chandod

/tʃãːdoːd/

Also known as Chandod, Chanod, Chandod-Karnali

A ghat town at the confluence of the Narmada and the Orsang, long used for shraddha rites for the dead. Its riverfront steps, priestly families and steady stream of mourners make this one of the busiest ritual stretches on the homeward half of the walk.
