Short Note Or Summary On The Guddu Barrage
(KHI* Board Science 2015)

River have played a very important role in human life. They have served as trade routes from the earliest time. Trade was made by boats and ships along rivers. That's why the most towns in ancient times were built near rivers.
Rivers have served man also in another way. For storing water and irrigation man started to construct barrages, dams and canals as it is the best source of water supply even in the out rainy season.
A barrage is a kind of wall which blocks the flow of water. It has gates, through which water is allowed to pass in a limited quantity. Its aim is to control the flow pf water in the flood season and store it in such a manner that the canals can get water through out the year. in this way farmers get water to irrigate their fields.
The Guddu barrage is one of many barrages built in Pakistan. It is built on the river Indus. It is designed to force the water-stored over fourteen kilometers to pass through a narrow barrage of about a kilometer. The barrage is 1355 meters in length. A flood of about 1.2 million cusecs can pass through it.
The 7 meters wide road bridge over it has reduced the road distance between Lahore and Quetta. The distance, between Rahim Yar Khan and Kashmore has almost been halved.
The Guddu barrage is one of the biggest barrages in Pakistan. It has also been the most difficult to complete. More than 5,000 engineers, technicians and laborers worked day and night to complete it.
