The Kaushalya Dam is an earth-fill embankment dam on the Kaushalya river, a tributary of the Ghaggar-Hakra River (a modern extension of the ancient Sarasvati river), near Pinjore in Haryana state, India. ... Ottu Barrage. ... Tajewala Barrage. ... Hathnikund Barrage. ... Anangpur Dam.
Kaushalya Dam The Kaushalya Dam (Hindi: कौशल्या बांध ) is an earth-fill embankment dam on the Kaushalya river , which is a tributary of Ghaggar-Hakra River [1] ( modern remnant of ancient Sarasvati river ), in Pinjore of Haryana state, India . It was constructed between 2008 and 2012 with the primary purpose of water supply . [2] Location [ edit ] Kaushalya barrage and resulting upstream dam on Kaushalya river are located 21 km from Chandigarh , [3] 12 km from Panchkula city and Khol Hi- Raitan Wildlife Sanctuary near Panchkula, [4] 5 km from Pinjore city, [5] and 13 km from Bir Shikargah Wildlife Sanctuary near Pinjore . History [ edit ] The first plan, which never materialised, for a dam on Ghaggar river was first proposed by the British raj in the mid 19th century to provide drinking water to Ambala Cantonment . [6] The proposal was revisited only in the 1960s to construct a dam on Ghaggar river at Gumthala near Chandimandir to provide water to Chandigarh and control floods in Punjab, India , this plan was abandoned in 1999 as it would have submerged over 4,000 acres (1,600 ha) of land resulting in relocation of a large number of people. [2] In 2005, the revised plan to build series of smaller dams on the tributaries of Ghaggar river was approved by the Government of Haryana and the construction of the Kaushalya dam commenced in 2008 which was completed in 2012. [2] [6] In 2023, during the North India floods , the dam's gates were opened to release 4000 cusecs of water. [7]
Ottu Barrage The Ottu barrage , sometimes spelled as the Otu barrage and also known as Ottu Head , is a masonry weir on the Ghaggar-Hakra River in Sirsa , Haryana state of India that creates a large water reservoir out of the formerly-small Dhanur lake, located near the village of Ottu , which is about 8 miles from Sirsa City in Haryana, India . [1] It is a feeder for the two Ghaggar canals (the Northern Ghaggar canal and the Southern Ghaggar canal) that carry irrigation water to northern Haryana state. [1] In 2002, a new tourist complex was inaugurated at the barrage, and it was given the honorary name of " Chaudhary Devi Lal Weir " to commemorate the former Chief Minister of Haryana state , Chaudhary Devi Lal . [2] The Dhanur lake reservoir is now often referred to simply as the Ottu reservoir. [3]
Tajewala Barrage Tajewala Barrage is a now decommissioned but existing old barrage across the Yamuna River , located in Yamuna Nagar District , in the state of Haryana , India . Completed in 1873, it regulated the flow of the Yamuna for irrigation in Uttar Pradesh and Haryana through two canals originating at this place namely Western Yamuna Canal and Eastern Yamuna Canal , [1] as well as the municipal water supply to Delhi . Replaced by the Hathiinikund barrage In 1999, the Hathnikund Barrage was completed to replace the aged Tajewala Barrage which is now out of service. [2]
Hathni kund he Hathni Kund is a concrete barrage located on the Yamuna River in Yamuna Nagar district of Haryana state, India . It was constructed between October 1996 and June 1999 for the purpose of irrigation. It replaced the Tajewala Barrage 3 km (2 mi) downstream which was constructed in 1873 and is now out of service. The barrage diverts water into the Western and Eastern Yamuna Canals. The small reservoir created by the barrage also serves as a wetland for 31 species of waterbird. [1] Plans to replace the Tajewala Barrage had been in the works since the early 1970s but an agreement between the governments of Haryana and Himachal Pradesh (which share the water it diverts) was not made until July 1994. [2] Although the barrage was completed in late 1999, it was not operational until March 2002 because of work delays. [3] The barrage is 360 m (1,181 ft) long and its spillway is composed of ten main floodgates along with five undersluices on its right side and three on its left. The maximum discharge of the barrage is 28,200 m 3 /s (995,874 cu ft/s) (1 in 500 year flood). [4]
Anagpur Dam The Anangpur Dam is an Indian hydraulic engineering structure built during the reign of the King Anangpal I of the Tomara dynasty in the 8th century. It is located near the Anangpur village in Faridabad district , Haryana , India. [1] History [ edit ] The king Anangpal Tomar I declared himself an independent ruler and established the Tomar Dynasty of Delhi in the early 8th century. He built his capital at the Anangpur village in Haryana and expanded his kingdom from there. He is said to have built numerous palaces and temples during his reign, majority of which are now completely diminished. [2] Anangpal I is often misunderstood to be Anangpal II . [3] [4]
