Ganga was following Bhagiratha.During its path it invaded great sage Juhnus Yagasala with water.He got angry and drank Ganga. Then all rishis and devathas requested him to release Ganga and appeased him saying that she would be his daughter.Then he released her through his ears.THatis why she is also called as Jahnavi.Like this Ganga joined seaand then went into Pathala to fulfill Bhagirathas task.Its waters ran through the ashes of Sagaras sons . HENCE THEY WER Ecleared of their sins and hence went to Heaven.
Since Ganga was brought to Earth by Bhagiratha. it is also called as Bhagirathi.Brahma came and blessed Bhagiratha.Viswamitra told this story to Rama and Lakshmana.
Then they slept and next day they went to Vishalapuram.Rama wanted to know about the city and Viswamitra obliged.
