The river is originated from the Garo Hills (গারো পাহাড়) of India and flows as Kongsho (কংস), and later joined with the Shomeswari (সোমেশ্বরী) river at Jaria-Jhanjail (জারিয়া-ঝান্জাইল). The river kept the name Kangsha (কংস) after joining together.
Near the bridge you'll find two bazaar at either side. One is Jaria (জারিয়া), and other one is Jhanjail (ঝান্জাইল). People used to call this place as Jaria-Jhanjail (জারিয়া-ঝান্জাইল) together.
During its course the river become too narrow and before demising it has joined with another great river of Bangladesh, Shurma (সুরমা), at Sunamganj (সুনামগঞ্জ).

টাঙ্গুয়ার হাওড়ের কাছে একটি শান্ত নদী হল বওলাই নদী। ভারতের মেঘালয় পাহাড় থেকে উৎপত্তি হওয়া এ নদীর দুইতীরেই কিছু সুদৃশ্য গাছ রয়েছে যেগুলো পানির নীচেই বেঁচে থাকতে সক্ষম। টাঙ্গুয়ার হাওড় দিয়ে প্রবাহিত হয়ে এই নদীটি সুরমা নদীতে মিলিত হয়েছে। শীতকালে এই নদী অতিক্রম করেই আপনাকে টাঙ্গুয়ার হাওড়ে যেতে হবে। শীতকালে এখানে নানা প্রজাতির পাখি দেখতে পাওয়া যায় যেমনঃ সাদাবক, পানকৌরি, গাংচিল, মাছরাঙ্গা ইত্যাদি। স্থানীয়দের জন্য এই নদীটি পরিবহনের একমাত্র মাধ্যম। কখনো কখনো এ নদীর ২-৩ মাইল এলাকায় কোন জনমানব দেখতে পাওয়া যায় না।
