Dynamics of river channel are natural autogenic occurrences for fluvial system with influences from modification of some climatic and geological factors. Remote Sensing and GIS tools and techniques have been used to analyze epochal channel dynamics of river. There are six reaches with in a 242 km Pandu river stretch were studied and analyzed by comparing sequential migratory changes of the river channel during 1975 2000, 2000 2013,2013 2015,2015 2020 and 1975 2020 epochs. Manual and automatic digital processing procedures and Geographical Information System were implemented to visualize and quantify the reach wise spatial and temporal morphological changes. The present study concluded that some major changes in migration in Pandu river. With the help of temporal monitoring some of the places have been identified at which were river highly migrated. There were six migratory points observed. At point C shows multi direction migration in river channel. This point C is situated in Mavaiya village, which is affected by migration at four different channels and it is migrated in multi direction. C1 64.65m in SW, C2 84 m in SE direction from 1975 2020, C3 73.61m in upward NE direction from 1975 2013 and C4 65.47m in downward South direction from 1975to 2020. These are drastic changes in Pandu river at Mavaiya village. The study period were observed and quantified at all reaches. Meandering and the switching off the main active channel were also illustrated. The information is important and necessary for understanding river modification characteristics and aid in planning and management at the lower reaches which has remained poorly understood. Use of remote sensing data in conjunction with GIS provides efficient and economical quantitative spatial and temporal analysis of river channel behavior in Pandu river

The present investigation concluded that if the river channel migrates drastically, bank erosion will increase which affecting settlements and fertile agricultural land. Between 1975 and 2020, it was effectively observed as a meandering shape near Mavaiya,Jhakhara,Chakdwari,andGalatha villages,resultingintheloss of agricultural landandhabitation life andproperty space.
Furthermore, geomorphic features such as ox bow lakes, cutoff meanders, paleochannels, and abandoned river channelsmightalterthelandscapeinthefuture.
Most of the migration of the river channels has been observed near Mavaiya about at C2 84 meters towards the south west direction, Chakdwari at E1 71.18 meters in the north direction, and Galatha atpoint F 110.17 meters in the south east directioninrespectivelyvillages,andduringthelast38to45years,accordingtothisstudybasedonriverchannelmigration.
