River seen meandering around India (5)
I believe the answer is:
seine
'river' is the definition.
(Seine is an example)
'seen meandering around india' is the wordplay.
'meandering' indicates anagramming the letters.
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'india' becomes 'i' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'seen' is an anagram of 'sene'.
'sene' enclosing 'i' is 'SEINE'.
(Other definitions for seine that I've seen before include "Paris river" , "Paris's river" , "Second longest river in France" , "Parisian river" , "French river -- type of fishing net" .)
