The Dhaleshwari River (Bengali: ধলেশ্বরী Dhôleshshori) is a distributary, 160 kilometres (99 mi) long, of the Jamuna River in central Bangladesh. It starts off the Jamuna near the northwestern tip of Tangail District. After that it divides into two branches: the north branch retains the name Dhaleshwari and merges with the other branch, the Kaliganga River at the southern part of Manikganj District. Finally the merged flow meets the Shitalakshya River near Narayanganj District. This combined flow goes southwards to merge into the Meghna River.

Il Dhaleswari è un fiume del Bangladesh centrale. Costituisce un braccio del fiume Jamuna (il corso principale del Brahmaputra), che lascia a sud/sud-ovest di Tangail. Prosegue serpeggiando in direzione sud-est per circa 160 km attraverso una regione intensamente coltivata a iuta e riso a ovest e a sud di Dacca fino a congiungersi al fiume Meghna nei pressi di Narayanganj.
