R. Saranges as Iravati?

edit

The article states that the R. Irāvatī (modern Ravi) was dubbed Saranges by the Greeks. However, R. Saranges is actually described by Megasthenes as the (eastern) boundary of Baktria. As such, it would correspond to the modern Panjshir River, adjacent to the Salang Mountain Pass - which leads across the Hindukush Range, from Kabul, Jalalabad or Lamghān to the region of Bactria (roughly Mazar-e-Sharif).
