Minister’s Message
P unjab Irrigation Department is entrusted with managing one of

the world’s largest contiguous irrigation systems. Managing
such a large system year-round, without fail requires a very
high degree of commitment and dedication. Not only that the physical
infrastructure of the system requires constant repair and
maintenance, the network also needs to be extended with new canals
and small dams to efficiently meet the ever-increasing water demands
of our farmers. The management of the entire system hinges on one
key fact that, with some annual fluctuations, the available water for
the system is not increasing, if anything, it is actually decreasing due to
global climate changes and construction of new dams on our rivers in India. We are also now taking
on the challenges of effective groundwater management and conjunctive use of our water
resources. Another area where we have put in a lot of effort is ensuring adequate and equitable
supply to the tail reaches of the system. It is a daunting task considering that our system was built
for 67% cropping intensity, whereas the actual cropping intensity currently is hovering around 150%.
In 2016-17, we reached a milestone by accomplishing the Lower Bari Doab Canal modernization and
rehabilitation project which also included rehabilitation of Balloki headworks. The New Khanki
Barrage, yet another milestone project, also went operational this year. These projects will not only
improve our flood management capacity but will also ensure reliable irrigation supplies to the
cultivable lands of central Punjab.
We are looking forward to continued progress and system reforms in the department as a number of
major physical infrastructure rehabilitation projects and institutional reforms are in the pipeline.
Soon we will be rolling out Jalalpur Canal Project and Phase II and Phase III of Greater Thal Canal
Project. These two projects will extend our system’s reach and improve our flood management
capacity too.
We also invested considerably in improving our system’s flood management capacity. The
development focus for 2016-17 was on our priority area of rehabilitation and upgrading of irrigation
infrastructure for improved service delivery. We have raised the budgetary allocation for irrigation
to a record Rs. 41 billion for FY 2017-18 to ensure that our modernization and development plans
stay on track. I also want to take this opportunity to thank my team including all the policy and
planning experts, engineers, administrators and field workers, spread all across the province, for
their commitment to successfully running this system and providing irrigation supplies to our
farmers day in day out.
Amanat Ullah Khan Shadikhel

Department III
Secretary’s Message
T he year 2016-17 has been a remarkable one for us, a clear

manifestation of our commitment to upgrading our physical
infrastructure and maintaining our vast network of canals to
ensure that irrigation supplies reach our agricultural fields equitably
and adequately. This year saw the completion of New Khanki
Barrage project which replaced the old structure built in 1892. The
new barrage would cater to more than 3 million acres of fertile land
in eight districts of the province. Yet another major accomplishment
this year was the completion of Lower Bari Doab Canal rehabilitation
project which also included modernization of Balloki Barrage. The
project included rehabilitation of 200 kms of main canal and 2,264
distribution channels and it would ensure improved irrigation
supplies to more than 1.7 million acres of land in four districts.
These developments are part of our commitment to rehabilitate, modernize or rebuild our physical
infrastructure and we are very much on track for rehabilitation of the rest of the infrastructure. Civil
works are already underway on Trimmu Barrage, work on Panjnad headworks and Jalalpur Irrigation
Project would be starting soon. These projects will not only ensure the safety of our structures for
generations to come but will also result in reliable irrigation supplies to our farmers.
The good news is that we are not merely focusing on the bricks and mortar aspects of our
department; we have put in some serious efforts in capacity building, reforms and institution
strengthening. Our Flood Risk Assessment Unit is now fully operational with the mandate to develop
preemptive flood forecasting. Strategic Planning/Reform Unit has been revitalized and it has been
assigned the task to chart out a strategic roadmap for our future. Having said that, we don’t want
these accomplishments to lull us into complacency and overlook the challenges that we are faced
with. We are very much focused on transforming our department into a modern water resource
management organization that not only takes care of irrigation water but also manages our precious
groundwater and also takes care of environmental and social aspects of managing our vast network.
We have several major ongoing rehabilitation projects now and, in addition to these, we are looking
ahead at launching some new projects including but not limited to Jalalpur Canal Project, Greater
Thal Canal Project and small dams. This report serves as a manifestation of our commitment to take
on all the challenges that irrigation sector is currently faced with.

4. Executive Summary
This report lays out Punjab Irrigation Department’s major activities, achievements and
institutional developments during the fiscal year 2016-17. PID’s work can be divided into
three main categories, namely annual development programme, maintenance and repair
work and public sector development programmes. These programmes are all geared
towards improving our service delivery, system efficiency and structural safety. But this
does not tell the whole story as there are mega projects going on under infrastructure
rehabilitation and modernization of our barrages and main canals systems.
PID has successfully completed the New Khanki Barrage Project, Jinnah Barrage
Rehabilitation Project and Lower Bari Doab Canal Improvement Project along with Balloki
Headworks. These projects are intended at ensuring enhanced flood management capacity,
improved service delivery and safety of the structures. In addition, Trimmu Barrage
Rehabilitation Project and Sulemanki Barrage with affiliated Pakpattan Canal Rehabilitation
Project are also underway. There are several new mega projects at different stages of
planning and execution including Panjnad Headworks Rehabilitation, Jalalpur Canal Project,
Thal Canal Phase I and Phase II, and a number of new small dams in Potohar area. All these
projects are signalling the beginning of a new regime of system modernization and
rehabilitation for improved performance and efficiency.
Programme Monitoring and Implementation Unit (PMIU) is engaged in monitoring of canal

operations and in developing state-of-the-art Water Resource Management Information
System to ensure that irrigation supplies are reaching our farmers right to the tail end of the
system. Flood Risk Assessment Unit and Project Implementation Unit are working on
improving our flood management capacity, Strategic Planning/Reform Unit has been
revitalized and it would be working on policy and planning for institutional reforms and
development portfolio. Its mandate also includes update of asset management plan and
yardstick, and preparation of water resources development projects.
5. Role of Irrigation Department
5.1 Vision
To provide adequate, equitable and reliable irrigation supplies leading to the culturable
lands of Punjab aiming at enhanced agricultural productivity, sustainable development with

5.5.3 Annual De-silting Campaign
Annual de-silting plan is a vital component of our annual work plan and is a recurring activity
that takes place every year. It is necessitated by the fact that our rivers carry a substantial
amount of silt, particularly during the flood season, which ends up in our canal network
even though we have silt excluders in barrages and silt ejectors in main canals. In 2016-17,
de-silting plans for 195 non-perennial channels costing Rs. 133 million was prepared and
carried out.

6.1.4 Monitoring and evaluation of schemes
Punjab Irrigation Department uses both internal and external monitoring and evaluation
mechanisms for its development and M&R portfolio. Internally, all operational zones have
their own monitoring mechanisms that are followed by the all operational divisions. For
external monitoring, Punjab Irrigation’s operations can be divided into four categories,
namely 1) Annual Development Programme, 2) Operation and Maintenance works and 3)
Public Sector Development Programme and 4) Foreign Aided projects. In all three categories
PID uses the services of external consultants to monitor various schemes. National
Engineering Services Pakistan limited (NESPAK) is the supervisory consultant with the aim to
improve implementation pace and quality & quantity of projects executed through the
portfolio of Annual Development Program. NESPAK provides technical assistance in design
evaluations, estimate evaluations, motioning of civil works and evaluation of the completion
status. They carry out their work through 100% on-site monitoring and evaluation of the
works by a dedicated team of resident engineers. In addition to on-the-spot support and
assistance, they also submit their reports on monthly basis to PID and these reports lead to
subsequent corrective actions. SPRU’s monitoring and evaluation unit reviews the reports

11
submitted by NESPAK and recommends necessary instruction for improvement in the light
of consultant’s report to the corresponding chief engineer of the operational zone.
For the monitoring and evaluation of M&R works, third party monitoring is again done at
the stages of estimation, execution and completion stages. The consultants evaluate the
design and estimation of the project before its execution starts and recommend changes
wherever needed. During the project implementation, the third party monitoring
consultants carry out spot checking of the 40% sample of the works. They submit their
reports to the Strategic Planning/Reform Unit who notify chief engineers of any
discrepancies at any stage. However third party consultant provide resident supervision for
flood restoration works, and works being taken on emergent basis under para 2.89 of PWD
code.
As for PSDP projects, NESPAK serves as the external monitoring consultant and again the
play their role at both design and execution stages of the project. At design level they
review the design of work proposals including baseline data and make recommendations
wherever needed. They also provide valuable input in developing cost estimates and then
finally at execution stages of the project they ensure that works are being executed as per
approved design, standard specifications, technical estimates and within the provisions of
contract agreement. NESPAK monitors the following projects under PSDP:
 Mega Irrigation Projects

 Irrigation System Rehabilitation Projects
 Lining of Irrigation Channels in Punjab under ADP Phase II and III
 Normal Annual Development Programme for Emergent Flood Works
 All other Federally Funded Projects
Hydraulic Structure Safety Evaluation Unit (HSSEU) carries out inspection of flood protection
works, embankments and structures to assess their health. They carry out these inspections
twice a year before and after the flood season. They submit their reports to the Secretary
Irrigation. HSSEU’s work plays a key role in planning for future flood management projects.
Programme Monitoring & Implementation Unit (PMIU) is a vital part of PID’s internal
monitoring mechanism. Their role is to ensure smooth problem-free canal operations and
equity and transparency in service deliverance. PMIU has an extended team of field
monitors who watch the canal operations from head regulator to the tail ends of the
system.
During the year 2016-17, PMIU developed a decision support system (DSS) incorporating the
intelligence of existing canal operators supported by scientific tools like flow forecasting
tools, simulation models for rivers and canals: facilitating the operator in equitable
management of precious irrigation flows throughout the system. Moreover, hydrological
and hydraulic models were developed to link with Decision Support System (DSS). Further,
the DSS was also linked with Irrigation Management Information System (IMIS) for handing

12
large data sets and providing facility for storage and retrieval of canal and river data
required by the models. The complete application will be called Water Resources
Management Information System (WRMIS) which will facilitate the decision makers in
making informed decisions regarding water availability and system response against various
management scenarios. The overall objective of the WRMIS is to develop interactive,
graphical; web based system along with Decision Support System.
Introduction of Real Time Flow Monitoring (RTFM) System was a major step forward during
the year 2016-17 in PMIU’s endeavors to collect fast, accurate and reliable data on canal
discharges and its further dissemination to stakeholders. The RTFM system shall be
instrumental in collecting data automatically without human intervention on canal water
levels, converting to canal discharges and its instant communication to the Punjab Irrigation
Department’s (PID’s) central office. It will facilitate the process of making rational decisions
with the help of informed judgment on regulation, allocation and water accounting in the
Punjab Irrigation System. Initially, RTFM System will be installed at 153 selected points
including 13 Barrages, tails of link canals and on the whole Eastern Sadiqia canal system as a
pilot project. So far, PMIU has been involved in the installment of RTFMS at 53 points and
the remaining is expected to be completed by end of September, 2017.
Field staff of PMIU also carried out 1246 outlet checking during the year 2016-17. Moreover,
discharge of 228 channels has been monitored during 2016-17 and subsequently discharge
tables were developed wherever it was required.
As for major foreign funded projects being undertaken by Project Management Office
Barrages and Lower Bari Doab Canal Improvement Project, monitoring and evaluation is
carried out at various stages of project implementation to ensure the quality of works and
adherence to the project designs. Both these projects also have dedicated experts for social
and environmental management to ensure that all concerns are being appropriately
addressed. In this regard it is worth mentioning that Punjab Irrigation Department has its
own team of social and environmental management experts to ensure adherence to the
recently developed Social and Environmental Assessment Guidelines for Irrigation Projects.
These guidelines will help PID’s field teams in addressing social and environmental concerns
in new canal and drain construction projects, lining projects, rehabilitation and remodeling
of canals and drains, construction of buildings and construction of small dams.
6.2 Service Delivery

Pakistan has the distinction of managing the largest contiguous gravity flow irrigation
system in the world. Irrigated agriculture on 8.4 million ha in Punjab (i) accounts for 28% of
Punjab’s gross domestic product (GDP), (ii) employs 54% of the labor force, (iii) produces
90% of Punjab’s agricultural output, and (iv) uses more than 90% of the water resources.
Punjab’s agricultural GDP is 66% of the national agricultural GDP. Of Punjab’s population,
77% live in rural areas that mainly depend on agriculture for livelihood and where the

13
incidence of poverty is 30%– 35%. Irrigated agriculture is crucial to generating higher
incomes and attaining Punjab’s targeted 6%–7% growth rate (5.28% in 2016–2017).

Punjab Irrigation Department is responsible for delivering adequate and equitable irrigation
supplies to our farmers and this means conveying water from head regulator at the barrage
to the outlet throughout vast network of main canals, branch canals and distributaries.
Punjab Irrigation Department has a vast administrative comprising 6 irrigation zones, 17

canal circles: each circle divided into divisions and sub-divisions; and in Punjab Irrigation and
Drainage Authority there are 6 Area Water Boards performing the same duties. In terms of
manpower, PID has more than 35,000 employees, at operational level from Chief Engineer
to beldaar, all have one major task: to ensure adequate and equitable irrigation supplies to
our farmlands. All new infrastructure development projects, rehabilitation projects, de-

14
silting campaigns, lining projects, modernization initiatives, reforms initiatives, institutional
capacity building efforts eventually translate into one major goal, namely service delivery to
21 million acres of cultivable command area in the province. In 2016-17, PID had
operational expenditures of Rs. 1684 million including both salary and non-salary
expenditures. Non-salary expenditures reflect maintenance and repair expenses for the
entire system.
6.3 Regulatory Framework Developments

Improving the regulatory framework which governs both surface and ground water use in
the province is the key to improving comprehensive water management. Punjab Irrigation
Department is cognizant of the fact that with social, economic and environmental changes
taking place in the province, the policy and regulations that address water uses also need to
be revised and updated to keep pace with the changes. Sustainable use of water resources
is going to be the linchpin of all our water management policies and practices. In this regard,
a major milestone that was achieved in 2016-17 was the preparation of draft “Punjab Water
Policy (2017)” which is now under process for approval by the Government. Overall
objective of the Punjab’s Water Policy is to: “Provide for sustainable management and
development of the available water resources (surface, groundwater, and wastewater)
taking stock of all uses of water i.e. irrigated agriculture, domestic, civic, industrial and
environment over entire geographic regions i.e. canal commands in Indus basin, rain-fed
areas and crop zones outside Indus basin through equitable water allocations and efficient
management and development.”
Key objectives of provincial water policy are:
 Increase water availability

 Manage groundwater extraction
 Improve water quality
 Enforce drinking water and sanitation standards
 Adapt to climate change, floods and droughts
 Maintain environmental safety of the land resource
 Rigorously pursue demand management
 Improve water governance
 Ensure financial sustainability
 Adroitly address trans-boundary issues
 Develop knowledge database and water informatics
Further, Irrigation Department since 2014 has adopted the approved policy for construction
and maintenance of flood protection works in Punjab. In this regard, an Act to regulate
construction works in flood plains has also been notified in the Punjab Gazette (April 2016).
Main objectives of this Act / Policy are as under:

15
All flood protection works will be classified according to hazard potential level i.e.
flooding and damages likely to occur in case of failure.
All new flood protection works shall be undertaken after detailed evaluation of the
need, geometry, layout, design, cost-benefit analysis and likely impacts on existing
flood protection works.
Hydraulic modeling studies aiming to determine optimum configuration and layouts
of flood protection works shall be conducted to maximize efficacy and sustainability
of proposed engineering solutions.
Protective works related to flood-hit villages, crops and orchards and erosion
protection of agricultural lands shall be undertaken by the local government
concerned in the light of findings of the post-2010 Judicial Flood Commission
appointed by Lahore High Court.
Existing privately owned flood protection works causing serious obstruction in the
floodplain shall be removed immediately.
Execution of flood protection works by other Government departments and
individuals shall be subject to permission of Irrigation Department.
Irrigation Department has also prepared a draft “Punjab Groundwater Protection,

Regulation and Development Act (2017)” and is in the process of approval by the
Government. The Act proposes establishment of Punjab Ground Water Commission to
develop Groundwater Management Plan in consultation with major stakeholders to be
notified in the Official Gazette.
The plan includes:
Identification of critical area with comprehensive description

Physical map of the area
Complete description of the aquifer, including groundwater levels, quantitative and
qualitative details. Past, present and projected water availability, demand and actual
uses
Share of present and past availability and use of groundwater
Extent and methods of recharge of aquifer
Monitoring and management of groundwater level and quantity
Mitigation of saline water intrusion risk
Distance of new tube wells from existing wells
Extent of conjunctive use of groundwater and surface water
Irrigation efficiency and water saving strategy
6.4 Public Private Partnership

Public private partnership is an effective tool for promoting private sector participation in
major public service delivery projects. In addition, it also decreases the financial burden on
the public exchequer and makes planning for future projects a little less constricted. PID has

16
not yet ventured into public private partnership as far as investment in its projects is
concerned, but with the increasing costs of M&R works and upcoming mega development
projects for the system rehabilitation, the need for seeking investments from private sector
is becoming ever more pressing. PID is aware of the importance of up-scaling the
investments in infrastructure development and improvement projects to ensure optimal
performance and service delivery.
6.5 Donor Engagements

In addition to the funding from the Government of the Punjab, the World Bank, Asian
Development Bank (ADB) and JICA have been providing financial and technical assistance in
upgrading, rehabilitation and remodeling of physical infrastructure and institutional
reforms. The following are the major projects being implemented in financial partnership
with our international partners:
Punjab Barrages Improvement Phase-II Project (PBIP-II) -Jinnah Barrage

New Khanki Barrage Construction Project
Pakpatan Canal and Sulemanki Barrage Improvement Project (PCSBIP)
Rehabilitation of Lower Chenab Canal System Part-B
Lower Bari Doab Canal Improvement Project (LBDCIP)
Punjab Irrigation System Improvement Project (PISIP)
Trimmu Barrage and Panjnad Headworks Project
Flood emergency reconstruction and Resilience Project
Greater Thal Canal Project
Jalalpur Canal Project
Disaster and Climate Resilience Improvement Project
In addition to this, financial

assistance from our international
partners has been instrumental in
developing and implementing policy
changes and institutional reforms.
ADB is also providing technical
assistance in capacity enhancement
of PID to improve water resource
management. Both the World Bank
and Asian Development are financial
partners in flood management projects being implemented by Project Implementation Unit
(PIU). The details of these activities can be found under PIU activities section.
Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) is continuing its financial cooperation with
PID on PISIP in the form of its extended initiative as mentioned above.

17
6.6 Mega Projects and Major Initiatives
There were several mega projects being implemented in the infrastructure
development/rehabilitation sector In 2016-17. This year marked the completion of two
Khanki Barrage and LBDC rehabilitation project and then a number of other projects are
ongoing. In addition to that PID is working a number of other projects at policy and planning
level. Below are the details of some of these projects.
6.6.1 Reconstruction and rehabilitation of barrages

Punjab Irrigation Department is the custodian of a system that dates back to the British era
and most of its barrages were built more than a century ago. These structures were marvels
of colonial era engineering and dutifully served our irrigation system for over a century but
ravages of time and occasional instances of disrepair mostly resulting from financial
constraints meant that these magnificent structures were faced with pressing safety and
operational issues.
Realizing that its physical infrastructure is reaching a ripe old age and needs immediate
rehabilitation, Punjab Irrigation Department embarked upon a phased program in year 2004
for rehabilitation, upgrading and modernization of 8 of its barrages. Project Management
Office Barrages is responsible for the execution of all these projects. The funding came from
two international agencies namely the World Bank (Taunsa and Jinnah barrages) and the
Asian Development Bank (Khanki, Balloki, Sulemanki, Trimmu, Panjnad ). Rehabilitation
project for Islam Barrage on River Sutlej is also being finalized.
6.6.1.1 New Khanki Barrage
FY 2016-17 saw the completion of

New Khanki Barrage on Chenab
River, built 900 meters downstream
of the old barrage which was built in
1892. The project was part of the
second tranche of the Asian
Development Bank (ADB’s) $700
million multi-tranche financing
facility (MFF) for the Punjab Irrigated
Agriculture Investment Programme.
The ADB provided 83% funding ($247
million) for the up-gradation of the Khanki Barrage, while the Punjab government pitched in
with the remaining 17 percent of the project cost.
The project would provide sustainable irrigation to 3.03 million acres of fertile land in eight
districts of Punjab - Gujranwala, Hafizabad, Sheikhupura, Nankana Sahib, Faisalabad, Jhang,
Chiniot and Toba Tek Singh. The project would directly benefit about 568,000 farming
families and reduce flooding risks from once in 50 years to once in 100 years.

18
The new barrage has saved the canal network of 2925 channels (4680 km) and is diverting
11,653 cusecs of sustainable irrigation supplies to the downstream lower Chenab Canal.
The new barrage has two abutments, 62 piers and a new head regulator, one road bridge
and two divider walls along with fish ladders for fish migration.
6.6.1.2 Jinnah Barrage (2012-2016)
Jinnah barrage located on Indus River has been rehabilitated and modernized at the cost of
Rs. 14,500 million with the financial assistance of the World Bank. Rehabilitation and
modernization of Jinnah Barrage and affiliated works has ensured reliable and
uninterrupted irrigation supplies to over 2.1 million acres of farmland, benefitting about
600,000 farm families of districts Mianwali, Khushab, Bhakkar, Layyah and Muzaffargarh.
Most of the work on the barrage

was completed by June 2016, while
development of Water Resource
Management Information System
and DSS has been completed in
2016-17. Further, installation of
Real Time Flow Monitoring System
have also been completed. Both
Khanki and Jinnah barrages had a
very strong component of
community development and empowerment incorporated into the project under Social
Development Action Plan. The following initiatives were taken under this initiative:
Fully equipped basic health units with special focus on maternal and neonatal health
care
Upgrading of girls primary schools to Girls Elementary School
Family recreation park as a main tourist attraction in the area
Vocational training centers
36 water supply schemes
Distribution of wheat seed bags
6.6.1.3 Trimmu and Panjnad Barrages Project
The project will rehabilitate and upgrade the 80–90 years old Trimmu and Panjnad barrages
to (i) provide reliable irrigation water to 4.3 million acres through six main canals; (ii)
primarily benefit 600,000 farming families (about 4.0 million people) in seven districts in
Punjab; and (iii) help reduce risk of communities against floods (150,000 people), droughts,
and pressure on groundwater extraction.

19
The Trimmu barrage is located on the Chenab River downstream of its confluence with the
Jhelum River. Sedimentation has reduced the barrage’s flood passage capacity (FPC) by 30%
from 18,265 cubic meters per second (m3 /s) in 1939 to 12,743 m3 /s in 2013. The Panjnad
barrage is also on the Chenab River, 250 kilometers downstream from the Trimmu barrage.
Aging, structural deterioration and instability, and low FPC exposed these barrages to high
risk of failure and resulted in unreliable irrigation supplies and downstream flooding. The
project will enhance the flood management capacity of both the barrages:
- Trimmu Barrage from 645,000 Cusecs to 875,000 Cusecs

- Panjnad Barrage from 700,000 Cusecs to 865,000 Cusecs
Physcial works are underway at Trimmu and by the end of 2017 contract will be awarded for
Panjnad too. This project is slotted to be completed by June 30th 2021. The Project worth
Rs. 7,440 million is being financed by the Asian Development Bank’s multi-tranche finance
facility.
6.6.1.4 Sulemanki Barrage and Pakpattan Canal Rehabilitation Project
Sulemanki Barrage was constructed on Sutlej River in 1926 and it irrigates over 2.5 million
acres of land in Okara, Pakpattan, Vehari, Lodhran, Bahawalnagar and Bahawalpur Districts
through Pakpattan Canal, Eastern Sadiqia Canal and Fordwah Canal. The project for the
rehabilitation of Sulemanki Barrage and Pakpattan Canal has a revised cost of Rs. 3149
million for Sulemanki Barrage and a revised cost of 2550 of Pakpattan Canal. The project
was initiated in 2013 and it is set to be completed by June 2018. The main works of the
project are funded by the Asian
Development Bank Tranche III of
Punjab Irrigated Agriculture
Investment Programme but the
leftover of the project activities
would be completed through local
financing allocated in 2017-18 ADP.
The project includes civil works on

the barrage, modernization of the
gates’ mechanism, and rehabilitation
of head regulators of all the three canals off-taking from the barrage. An important part of
the project is the rehabilitation of Pakpattan canal which will greatly improve irrigation
supplies to Okara, Vehari, Pakpattan and Lodhran Districts.
6.6.2 Lower Bari Doab Canal Improvement Project

One of the major infrastructure improvements projects was the Punjab Irrigated Agriculture
Investment Programme Project-1 on the Lower Bari Doab command area on River Ravi
which completed this year.

20
More than 300,000 rural households deriving their livelihood from crops grown in the Lower
Bari Doab command area (LBDC) command area are benefitting from the remodeling, up-
gradation and rehabilitation of the barrage, the LBDC canal and its distributaries.
More than 200 km of main canal and 2,264 km of distribution channels have been
rehabilitated along with upgradation of Balloki barrage. An overall 18 per cent increase in
water availability in Okara, Pakpattan, Sahiwal and Khanewal districts to 700,000ha of land
is expected.
The Balloki Barrage was suffering from insufficient flood capacity, sediment management
problems, causing masking upstream of the barrage, and a deteriorating condition of its civil
and mechanical appurtenant. The Lower Bari Doab Canal was also experiencing several
functional and safety issues like inadequate capacity to carry authorized discharge of 9,841
cusecs; age-old and weakened structures and banks that have eroded over the past 100
years. The distribution system was also facing operational problems.
Flood discharge capacity of the barrage has been enhanced from 225,000 cusecs to 260,000
cusecs. Besides a new flood spillway has been constructed with a 120,000 cusecs capacity,
increasing the barrage’s capacity to 100-year record flood of 380,000 cusecs.
LBDC canal operated at 8,500 cusecs at head against its designed discharge of 9,841 cusecs.
After remodelling, the canal has so far been safely operated at 9,300 cusecs while in the
kharif season it will be operated at its original capacity of 9,841 cusecs.
The Montgomery-Pakpattan (MP) Link off-taking from LBDC has also been remodelled and
upgraded and now it can operate with 1,000 cusecs instead of the earlier designed capacity
of 300 cusecs. The upgraded capacity was safely tested up to 700 cusecs during the previous
kharif season.
Similarly, Gugera Branch and Gugera distributary with a total length of 308 RDs has been
rehabilitated and has been operating at the authorised discharge of 850 cusecs. A new BS
Link Head regulator with a capacity of 10,000 cusecs has been constructed to help transfer
more water to Suleimanki Barrage for Bahawalpur Zone after remodeling of BS Link.
The canals’ capacity was improved by removing the old concrete structures like bridges and
falls to widen its narrow openings and the concrete lining of distributaries with up to 50
cusecs capacity (tail portions of the water channels) has been done to improve water flow
and lower maintenance costs as well as reduced efforts to de-silt the channels. The slope of
the lining disallows buffaloes to sit in the channels and obstruct the water flow.
6.6.3 Project Implementation Unit

Project Implementation Unit PIU was established to execute two projects namely Flood
Emergency Reconstruction and Resilience Project (FERRP) and Disaster and Climate

21
Resilience Improvement Project (DCRIP) funded partially by Asian Development Bank and
the World Bank respectively.
Salient objectives of these projects are
i) Rehabilitation and reconstruction of Irrigation and Flood protection infrastructure by

focusing on resilience against future floods in Punjab.
ii) Studies for physical modeling of floodplain, safety evaluation of hydraulic structure,
river morphological change and disaster risk management.
iii) Capacity Building & Strengthening of department with focus on resilience against
repeated floods.
iv) Improvise resilient techniques for flood embankments and important hydraulic
structures against future floods
v) Improvement and Social and Environmental Safeguards of flood affectees.
vi) Improvement in decision support system for developing new flood simulation modeling.
vii) Potential for identification, monitoring and assessment of flood disasters.
6.6.4 Small Dams in Potohar Area

Small dams are vital means for providing agriculture and drinking water in Potohar region by
tapping maximum run-off in the catchment areas. Small dams are local area development
schemes and generally have nominal storage potential. These dams therefore can’t
substitute the multi-purpose large storage dams they do provide irrigation and drinking
water supplies to the barani areas in Chakwal, Jhelum, Attock and Rawalpindi districts. As
many 57 small dams have been constructed in Potohar area since 1962 to cater for irrigation
supply to 70689 acres of Barani land. Besides providing direct benefits of irrigation water,
the dams are also providing other benefits like recharging of ground water in potohar area.
Ground water table has generally raises and farmers are able to irrigate their lands by
installing turbine pumps in nearby areas of the dams. These dams are also helpful in
development of fish culture provision of recreational activities.
 57 small dams have been constructed

 12 dams are under construction
 Projects for 4 new small dams are in the pipeline
 There are another 37 identified dam sites
 Rs. 212.5 million per annum are required for O&M for all 56 dams

6.6.5 Punjab Irrigation System Improvement Project

Punjab Irrigation System Improvement Project (PISIP) was launched with the objectives of
ensuring equitable distribution of water supplies to the farmers especially in the tail areas of
the system and to enable PIDA to meet future requirement of canal water for increasing
cropping intensities and crop yields.
The main components of the project were completed in March 2015 but it was decided that
the savings (Rs. 1480 million) from the project cost will be utilized for the rehabilitation of
Khadir Feeder, Khadir Disty and Chenab Escape in Sargodha Irrigation Zone. The funding
agency Japan International Cooperation Agency gave its nod to the new initiative on June

23
30, 2016. Accordingly the Summary to the Chief Minister Punjab for continuation of this
scheme in ADP 2016-17 and the Project Management Office (PMO) was approved on
September 01, 2016. The PDWP approved the scheme “Rehabilitation of Khadir Feeder,
Khadir Disty and Chenab Escape” amounting Rs. 901.395 Million on October 07, 2016. Final
formal administrative approval of the scheme was issued on May 31, 2017 and now the
hiring of the consultants has also been completed.
6.6.6 Punjab Irrigation and Drainage Authority

Punjab Irrigation & Drainage Authority (PIDA) was set up through an enactment in 1997 at
provincial level with representation of farmers. Area Water Boards (AWB) at each canal
command and Farmer Organizations (FOs) at distributary level were constituted. At present,
there are five Area Water Boards on Lower Chenab Canal (East) Circle Faisalabad, Lower
Chenab Canal (West) Circle Faisalabad, Lower Bari Doab Canal Circle Sahiwal, Bahawalnagar
Canal Circle Bahawalnagar and Dera Jaat Canal Circle D.G. Khan. Farmers Organizations
(FOs) are participating in the management of their distributaries under a comprehensive
legal framework. Currently there is only one FO that is working without any legal issues, 55
FOs are working under litigation and elections are due on 346 distributaries and these
distributaries are being managed by PID Executive Engineers as administrators under PIDA
rules.
6.6.6.1 Collection of Abiana

During last fiscal year 2016-17 PIDA share was assessed at Rs. 433.34 million and Rs. 200.82
million were deposited at PIDA Headquarter which is 46.34% of the total to be deposited.

6.7 SDG and Growth Strategy
The concept of human development has evolved greatly in the last two decades
incorporating notions like sustainability, water resource management, human rights,
freedom of choice, equality and equity. The eight millennium development goals,
precursors of sustainable development goals, fell short of addressing the roots causes of
inequality, denial of basic human rights and last but not least sustainable use of our
resources including water and energy. Therefore, the United Nations redefined the goals for
achieving universal human development though a massive consultative process.
Government of the Punjab has committed itself to achieving these goals. SDG #6 is all about
water and stresses the need for integrated water resource management (IWRM). IWRM
provides a framework within which to consider correlation between different development
objectives and, where possible, to identify win-win water investments. Water resource
management can fast-track economic productivity and growth. This relation is two-
directional; the resulting economic growth can provide the resources to finance capital-
intensive investments in water related infrastructure.
This evolution of the concept of development and the concept of water resource
management calls for redefining the roles and responsibilities of Punjab Irrigation
Department. It can no longer be content with its role as merely a service delivery agency; it
is very much cognizant of this emerging reality as its policy spearhead Strategic
Planning/Reform Unit has already started planning a future roadmap for the organization
that would makes it more environmentally responsible, more attuned to sustainable use of
our precious water resources, both surface and ground, and build its capacity to make a
meaningful contribution to sustainable development goals. There are several studies
indicating that the our irrigation system needs to improve its efficiency and cut large losses
in every component of the delivery system across the province if we are to deal with the
water stress situation in a meaningful way.
Pakistan’s transition from a water-abundant to water-stressed state has not led to

corresponding improvements in water usage and water management practices. The
adoption of water saving technology can underpin the Government strategy in the short to
medium term. Water saving technologies may be divided into two categories: 1)
Technologies that can be implemented with little or no change in the traditional farming
methods, such as watercourse lining, laser land leveling, and development of crop varieties
requiring less water. Successful propagation of such methods is likely to be easier requiring
demonstration and promotion. 2) Technologies that require significant modification of
farming, such as setting up permanent raised beds, substituting high delta water crops with
low delta crops, or the use of High Efficiency Irrigation Systems (HEIS). Such initiatives may
have greater overall impact but may require greater efforts to popularize. Institutional and
regulatory reforms, such as the Groundwater Act are also needed to be introduced urgently.

25
Along with this, since Punjab’s agriculture is heavily reliant on irrigation, the Government of
Punjab’s Irrigation Department is currently undertaking or planning to undertake major
investments in improving the irrigation infrastructure to improve the productivity of water
use. (See Table below) These investments will be made with the financial assistance of
international development partners. These investments will have a profound impact on our
future and will also determine how well we are going to manage our water resources in
future. In addition to these infrastructure rehabilitation investments, PID is also making
major investments in developing policy guidelines, institutional reforms and legal
frameworks to pave the way for sustainable water use. Development of a water policy and
groundwater management act is two of the major milestones achieved in this regard.

6.8 Institutional Strengthening, HR Development and Reforms

2016-2017 has been a continuation of the reforms process which originated somewhere
back in 90s when the department started putting in place participatory irrigation
management practices in some of its canal circles. Since then PID has embarked upon a
multi-tiered reforms process and institution building. It started developing asset
management plans for its vast network, started revising yardsticks for M&R works,
introduced third party monitoring of M&R projects, procurement processes became
transparent, several new units have been established for planning, implementation and
monitoring of development projects. Strategic Planning/Reform Unit is also developing
human resource management plan for the entire department.
6.8.1 Revitalization of Strategic Planning/Reform Unit

The department has revitalized a dedicated unit for institutional policy and reforms called
Strategic Planning/Reform Unit (SPRU) as a strategic spearhead of the organization. The unit
will revisit the institutional reforms and will serve as a think tank as far as the current

26
institutional challenges faced by the Irrigation Department are concerned. The unit has a
team of dedicated professionals in the areas of social and environmental management,
human resource management, policy planning, water engineering, groundwater
management, climate change, procurement, monitoring and evaluation and
communications. SPRU will be working on developing key policy guidelines for PID,
including but not limited to:
Social and Environmental Management Guidelines for development projects

Revision of yardsticks for M&R works
Update of asset management plan (to serve as a baseline for future projects
Human resource management plan
Internal and External communication action plan
Groundwater management plan
Procurement policy guidelines
Planning for water resource management projects
6.8.2 Flood Risk Assessment Unit

Flood Risk Assessment Unit (FRAU) became practically operational in 2016 and its mandate
involves collection of complete set of information on the expected discharge in a selected
river reach at a given time for estimation of flood extents and identification of flood prone
areas along the river. The unit has achieved the following targets thus far:
- Development of floodplain demarcation maps of Punjab River network for floodplain

of 100 years return period.
- Flood atlas with contours, flood inundation areas under a specified river flow in
order to analyze the flood situation.
- Development of hydrological model for upper Chenab River for the forecast of flood
peak, using GPM satellite and synoptic data. The model predicted flood peaks in
monsoon of 2016 with 90% accuracy.
- Drainage network pattern analysis for Lahore, Faisalabad and Sargodha zones.
- Digitization of historic flood extents and acquisition of historic flood imagery.
FRAU is currently working on
- Calibration of satellite rainfall data with observed on ground rainfall data.

- Routing model with the influence of lateral flow from Marala to Khanki headworks.
- Flood frequency analysis of all streams and rivers at important hydraulic structures.
- Generation soil cover maps for hydrological modelling.
- Hydrological modelling of Deg, Aik and Palkhu Nullahs.
- Creation of GIS database including digitization of field data, stream networks,
historic flood extents and flood infrastructure.
- Daily monitoring of flood situation using satellite images.

27
- Currently the unit is working on development of decision support system for flood
management in the province.
Hydraulic Structures Safety Evaluation Unit, established in Drainage and Flood Zone, went
operational in 2016. has a role to conduct pre-flood and post-flood safety evaluations of the
hydraulic structures and submit findings to relevant zone. The unit carried out visits to all
the barrages, especially to the ones flagged for potential flood situations.
6.8.3 Project Implementation Unit
At the request of the Government of the Pakistan and the Provincial Government of Punjab,
the Asian Development Bank and the World Bank jointly conducted a flood damages
assessment mission in October 2014 to discuss the possible area of financial assistance for
post floods 2014 rehabilitation and reconstruction phase.
Two projects namely “Flood Emergency Reconstruction and Resilience Project (FERRP)”
ADB Assisted amounting Rs. 17,690.89 Million (Irrigation share: Rs 6662 million) and
“Disaster and Climate Resilience Improvement Project (DCRIP)” WB Assisted of amount Rs
10240.00 Million (Irrigation Share: Rs 6151 million), were approved by ECNEC in 2015 and
Project Implementation Unit PIU was established to execute these projects.
PIU’s mandate includes flood protection works rehabilitation and remodelling and
improvement the existing structures to the criteria prescribed by Federal Flood Commission.

7. Plans for 2017-18
7.1 Policy for Future
Our water resources are coming under increasing stress, thanks mainly to uninhibited
population growth and climate changes, and we are entering a phase where we have to
start thinking of transforming from a maintenance and service delivery department into an
environmentally responsible, tech savvy and self sufficient water management body that is
proactively engaged in responding to all the challenges. The transition from service delivery
to effective water resource management is the keystone of our policy. We are striving to
usher in an era of effective, conjunctive use of water, effective groundwater regulation,
water pricing leading to decreasing reliance on government and external funding and
modernization of our systems and physical infrastructures.
Keeping in view the mounting water shortages, which have further accentuated in the wake
of increasing effects of climate change and resultant floods and droughts, the future
roadmap of PID will be focused on dealing with the following major challenges that
irrigation sector is faced with:
(i) Continuing rehabilitation/modernization of irrigation and drainage infrastructure

with the help of periodically updated asset management plans.
(ii) Ensuring financial sustainability of the system by improving abiana recovery and
finding additional sources of funding public and private sectors.
(iii) Improving transparency in water entitlements and distribution.
(iv) A cohesive and clearly defined course of action for all institutional reforms
including the experience of participatory irrigation management in the form of
Punjab Irrigation and Drainage Authority.
(v) Imprudent and inefficient utilization and management of groundwater.
7.2 Salient Features of Sector’s MTDF (2017-20)

Irrigation sector’s total outlay for the year 2017-18 is planned as Rs.41.031 billion. This
allocation shows no increase from ADP 2016-17 and constitutes about 6.83% of the core
ADP (2017-18) budget under the MTDF 2017-20. Project outlays for the sector in years
2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20 are Rs.41.031 billion, 53.889 billion and Rs.34.002 billion
respectively. Total 173 schemes are included in MTDF 2017-18 (out of which 96 are on-going
and 77 are new schemes) have been targeted to be executed during 2017-18 with an
allocation of Rs. 28.300 billion (69 %) for on-going and Rs. 12.731 billion (31 %) to new
schemes respectively. 45 on-going and 24 new schemes will be completed during 2017-18.

In addition to this the department would also launch its annual de-silting drive, detailed
plans for which are prepared by all operational zones. Below are details of some of the
major projects PID has committed to executing:
7.2.2 Jalalpur Irrigation Project

Government of the Punjab has planned Jalalpur Irrigation project, a new non-perennial
irrigation system for enhancing the agricultural produce in Pindadan Khan and Khaushab
areas. The concept of providing irrigation supplies to this area is not new and has been in
consideration since 1930. The proposed canal will off take from the left bank of Rasul
Barrage.
The proposed Jalalpur project will enhance agricultural production by providing irrigation
supplies to 170,000 acres of land. The proposed canal is 115 km long with designed
discharge of 1350 cusecs and it will underpass the Lahore-Islamabad Motorway and a
culvert has already been provided for that. The canal will have a distribution system of 23
distributary channels, 10 minor canals and more than 780 hydraulic structures of various
kinds.
The project will benefit over 225,000 rural people spread over 80 villages in the project area
and it is worthwhile to mention here that most of the beneficiaries are small farmer.
The Asian Development Bank carried out the feasibility study in November 2016 under a
Project Preparatory technical Assistance and now a detailed engineering design is being
prepared by design consultants under $5 million Project Design Advance. The design
activities are likely to conclude by September 30th 2017. The total project outlay is US $ 360
million out of which loan amount is $280 million and the total works cost is $177 million.
The project execution is expected to start in June 2018.
7.2.3 Greater Thal Canal

This project envisaged a 35 km long main with 8,500 cusecs capacity along with Mankera,
Chaubara, Dhingana, Nurpur and Mahmood sub-branches with length of 342 kms. The
project area falls within the boundaries of Bhakkar, Layyah, Khaushab, Muzaffargarh and

32
Jhang districts. The northern most extremity of the project is Adhikot where a head
regulator for Greater Thal Canal had already been constructed at RD 180+222 of the
Chashma-Jhelum Link Canal.
The gross command area of the project is 1,976,000 acres and the population of the project
is quite sparse and is estimated to be about 900,000. Under the inter-provincial water
accord, allocation of 1873 million acre feet have been made available and additional flood
supplies may also be available during monsoon. The main objective of the project is to
provide the project area with irrigation supplies through a network of canals. The project
would boost the economy of the area through increased agricultural activity and
subsequent growth in livestock, fisheries and forestry.
Phas I of the project comprising main canal and Mankera Branch system had already been
completed by Water and Power Development Authority in 2006 with a completion coat of
Rs. 9587.28 million and has been in operation since then under PID control. Phase II,
comprising Chaubara Branch system is being financed by Government of the Punjab with a
capital cost (PC I) of Rs. 6,261.70 million and Phase III, comprising the rest of the system will
be financed through proposed Asian Development Bank funding.
7.2.4 Irrigated Agriculture in Smaller Cholistan

Water accord of 1991 permits the development of new irrigated areas through flood flows
within the allocated provincial shares. Accordingly, flood flows would be utilized for the
irrigated agriculture requirements in the Smaller Cholistan which shall be conveyed to the
area through Sulemanki Barrage from Mangla command via RQ, QB and BS Link Canals. The
aim of the project is to provide irrigation supplies, drinking water and water for livestock.
The project would bring remaining areas of Smaller Cholistan (gross area 0.697 million
acres) and abandoned areas of Hakra Branch Canal of Eastern Sadiqia Canal ( CCA.096
million acres) under irrigated agriculture during flood flow season (July-September). The
proposed project cost is Rs. 31,736 million and implementation period would be three
years. The final study for the project has been submitted.
7.2.5 Extension of Irrigated Agriculture from Abbasia Link Canal - Greater

Cholistan
Cholistan represents a land mass of 6.42 million acres with great potential for development.
Unfortunately this area represents a very degraded ecology. Desertification Risk Assessment
carried out by FAO criteria indicated that 81% area is as at severe desertification risk and
17% area is at very severe desertification risk. These conditions point out very disastrous
environmental, economic and social consequences for the people of this area. The
population of Cholistan, around 180,000, is nomadic and migrates around Cholistan with its
livestock dispending upon rain and water availability.
The proposed project envisages providing water from flood flows for arrogated agriculture
in the area. These flood flows will be available through Abbasia Link Canal (July to

33
September) out of the Punjab share of the flood surplus as per 1991 Water Accord. The
existing Abbasia Link Canal off-taking from Panjnad has a design discharge of 5600 cusecs
and is proposed to be remodeled for an enhanced discharge of 7600 cusecs for conveying
flood water to the project area.
7.2.6 Proposed Study for Punjab Irrigation Department to Cope with Water Resources
Management Challenges
Asian Development Bank is providing technical assistance to PID for institutional
transformation of the organization into a resource management department. This initiative
ties in well with the ongoing institutional reforms and development projects in the
department. PID is well on track for developing a roadmap for holistic management of its
water resources. The initiative would provide assistance in change management, revitalizing
research and development, and capacity building.
7.3 Strategic Interventions

 Jabalpur Irrigation Project, costing Rs. 26,000 million assisted by Asian Development
Bank.
 Construction of Intake and Allied structures on River Ravi costing over Rs.5.0 billion
for augmenting / supplying drinking water to Lahore Metropolitan area.
 Construction of Kas Umar Khan Canal system costing Rs. 2,500 million in Tehsil Isa
Khel District Mianwali.
 Management of Flood Protection of Deg Nullah (Channelization and enhancing
capacity of Basantar Nullah) costing Rs.4975 million.
 Construction of Papin dam (land acquisition component) costing Rs. 1220 million.
 Construction of Dadoacha Dam costing Rs.4,000 million.
 Remodeling of SMB Link Canal and Enhancing Capacity of Mailsi Syphon costing
Rs.4034 million.
 Greater Thal Canal Project Phase-II (Chobara Branch) costing Rs.6261 million.
7.4 Interaction with Media

PID has recently started coordinated media outreach efforts to highlight the milestones it
has achieved in the previous fiscal year including the mega projects. Detailed news stories
on Lower Bari Doab Canal Improvement project, completion of New Khanki Barrage Project,
infrastructure rehabilitation projects at other barrages have all found their way to the
national press. These news stories have highlighted the benefits accruing from the project
and improvement in service delivery. During the 2017 flood season PID has also regularly
updated the media on the status of flood flows in all the critical areas at our rivers and in all

34
the Nullahs in Sialkot, Sheikhupura and Gujranwala region. All these initiatives are part of
PID’s commitment to allowing access to information to the public.
PID is also managing a website that provides discharge information on all its channels to the
users. The website is also a vital tool for finding procurement information, tender
documents, or even for lodging complaints against any service delivery issues. All these
initiatives are helping in ushering in a era of transparency and public ownership of PID’s
projects.
