The Upper Bari Doab Canal was constructed between 1889 and 1901 during British rule in India. It was designed to irrigate the area between the Ravi and Chenab rivers in the Punjab region, facilitating agricultural development. The canal remains an essential part of the irrigation system in the region today.
Tripple canal project (1909-1917) in Punjab (Pakistan) INCLUDED UPPER JHELUM,UPPER CHENAB AND LOWER BARI DOAB CANALS.
The Upper Bari Doab Canal was constructed during the British colonial period in India, with its construction starting in 1885 and completed in 1901. It was designed to irrigate the agricultural lands in the Punjab region, specifically between the Ravi and Sutlej rivers. The canal played a significant role in enhancing agricultural productivity in the area.
There are four doabs of Pakistan: 1- Sindh Sagar Doab (B\w river indus and jhelum) 2- Chaj Doab (B\w river chenab and jehlum) 3- Rachna Doab (B\w river Ravi and chenab) 4- Bari Doab (B\w river Beas and ravi)
Important Canals of Pakistan River Indus, Jhelum and Chenab are the math sources of water for Pakistan. These rivers have maximum quantity of water during summer but minimum during winter season 84% of the total water flows in these rivers in summer. The Canals of River Ravi Upper Ban Doab and lower Ban Doab are two important canals of river Ravi. These canals are very important for the production of summer crops. The upper Bari Doab is and old canal which was constructed in 1868. The Canals of River Chenab The upper Chenab and lower Chenab irragate the area of Rachna Doab. The haveli system of canals is also located in this Doab that comes out from Trimmu Head Works. The Canals of River Jhelum Chaj Doab has two important canals i.e. upper Jhelum and lower Jhelum. These canals irrigate a large part of the Triple Canal Project and have increased agricultural production. These two canals along with lower Ban Doab link the three rivers i.e. Jhelum Chenab and Ravi. The Canals of River Sutlej There are three Head Works on river Sutlej i.e. Feroze-Wala, Sulaimanki and Islam, whereas fourth is on the Puhjnad. These canals irrigate the area of Nili Bar and Bahawalpur. The Canals of River Indus The canals from Jinnah Barrage near Kalabagh irrigate the desert area of Thar for agricultural purpose. Districts of D.G. Khan and D.I. Khan are irrigated by a link canal from Chashma barrage, Taunsa barrage and Guddu barrage also have canals which irrigate vast areas. Following are imporatant canals from river Indus for NWFP.

Following are imporatant canals from river Indus for NWFP. 1. The Canal of River Swat. 2. The Canal from Swat River Irrigates. 3. The Peshawar area. 4. The Warsak Project. A project in the north west of Peshawar at Warsak is important for the local requirments of the region.
