The Bhakra Nangal Project is constructed across the Sutlej river. This multi-purpose project is located in the northern Indian states of Himachal Pradesh and Punjab. The project mainly aims to control and manage water resources for irrigation, hydroelectric power generation, and flood control. It consists of the Bhakra Dam, which is one of the highest gravity dams in the world, and the Nangal Dam. The Sutlej river, originating from the Tibetan plateau, is a major tributary of the Indus river. It flows through India and Pakistan, providing crucial water resources for agriculture and energy production in both countries. The Bhakra Nangal Project has significantly contributed to the development of agriculture and electricity generation in the region.
