Abstract

There is an increasing emphasis in Pakistan on improving the performance of its irrigation systems. As part of this strategy, the North-West Frontier Provincial Government has allocated increased water duties (from traditional levels) to the newly built Chashma Right Bank CanaI (CRBC) Irrigation System. The Girsal Minor, which is part of the old Paharpur Irrigation System, and now integrated into the CRBC, has benefitted from these efforts.
