India has a great advantage of the Himalayas which lie to her north. For one thing, they protect the Indians plains from the austerity of intensely cold winds from China that would otherwise blow over them.
The Himalayas are very high. So, they are always covered with a thick layer of snow which melts partially in summer. Thus, all the major rivers of India like the Ganga, the Yamuna, the Sutlej, the Beas and the Brahmputra flow to the Indian plains from the glaciers situated in the Himalayas.

Flooding Along the Sutlej River in Punjab
Weeks of heavy monsoon rains flooded farmland and hundreds of villages along the Sutlej River in Pakistan and India in August 2023.
The pair of images above highlights flooding along the Sutlej River, near Firozpur in the Punjab region. The lower image shows water overtopping banks of the river on August 19. The top image shows the same region on June 16, before much of the flooding took place. Both images were acquired with the Operational Land Imager-2 (OLI-2) on Landsat 9.
The Sutlej River flows southwest from India into Pakistan. Although the state of Punjab in India received about average rainfall since June, according to India’s Meteorological Department, excess rain has fallen on Ladakh and Himachal Pradesh, to the north. Between June 1 and August 25, Ladakh received almost three times as much rain as normal.
According to ReliefWeb, over 200,000 people have been evacuated in Pakistan and several hundred villages have been inundated with floodwater since late June, the start of the monsoon season.
Water levels on the Sutlej at the Ganda Singh Wala village gauging station, 7 kilometers (4 miles) west of Firozpur, were “exceptionally high” on August 19, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department. Pakistan’s chief meteorologist covering floods said the river level was at its highest in 35 years.
The summer monsoon, which occurs between June and September every year, brings South Asia much of its annual rainfall. It is vital for the millions of farmers in the region, but it can also bring floods and landslides that lead to evacuations.
More than 200 people have died in Pakistan in rain-related incidents since the monsoon season began in late June, according to Pakistan’s National Disaster Management Authority. Many areas of Pakistan are still recovering from the devastation of extreme monsoon rains in 2022, which flooded nearly one-third of the country and killed more than one thousand people.

Exploring Punjab's Rich Cultural Heritage
INTRODUCTION:
India's northwest region of Punjab is home to a diverse range of historical and cultural traditions. The lush plains between the rivers Sutlej and Beas give Punjab its moniker, "Land of Five Rivers," and it is bounded to the northeast by the foothills of the Himalayas. Punjab's agricultural prosperity and historical significance have been aided by its advantageous geographic location.
BODY:
The Heart of Sikhism:
Golden Temple: A Spiritual Marvel: Known also as Sri Harmandir Sahib, the Golden Temple is a monument to the spiritual and architectural magnificence of Sikhism. Situated in the centre of Amritsar, Punjab, this opulent structure represents inclusivity and equality in addition to being a place of worship. Its shimmering golden façade reflects the Sikhism's brilliant spirit, beckoning both visitors and believers to feel its spiritual aura.
Cultural and Spiritual Significance: Learning about the Golden Temple's cultural and spiritual significance reveals a history marked by tenacity and commitment. It was initially constructed in the sixteenth century by the fifth Sikh Guru, Guru Arjan Dev Ji, and has subsequently undergone extensions and modifications. The temple's reflecting pool, Amrit Sarovar, represents the nectar of immortality.
A Feast of Equality: The Langar Tradition
The Golden Temple's communal kitchen, the Langar, is one of its most amazing features. It is the embodiment of the Sikh values of equality and selflessness. Without regard to socioeconomic class, religion, or origin, volunteers here labour nonstop to cook and serve free meals to everyone. Beyond just a restaurant, the Langar is an embodiment of Sikh principles, shattering social boundaries and promoting harmony among all attendees.
Festivals and Celebrations:
The Vaisakhi Festival: An Intricate Web of Customs and Celebrations
One of the liveliest festivals in Punjab is Vaisakhi, which is observed with great enthusiasm and fervour. Vaisakhi is a deeply religious holiday that heralds the harvest season and has roots in both Sikh and Hindu cultures. Investigating the Vaisakhi festivals reveals a mosaic of joyful events and cultural manifestations.
Lohri Festival: Basking in the Winter's Heat
The festival of Lohri, which falls on the winter solstice, exudes cosiness and a sense of community. With a focus on fertility and the prospect of longer days, Lohri is a celebration celebrated with bonfires, folk music, and warm-hearted get-togethers.
Art and Craftsmanship:
A Tapestry of Colours and Tradition: Phulkari Embroidery the magnificent art of Phulkari embroidery, a multicoloured tapestry that combines tradition, culture, and workmanship, is at the core of Punjab's creative legacy. This elaborate type of stitching reflects the rich history and cultural significance of Punjab and is more than just a talent. It's a storytelling art.
Jutti Punjabi: A Graceful Dance of Custom and Style entering the world of Punjabi culture, one is greeted by the stunning dance of tradition, the Punjabi Jutti, as well as vivid colours. These classic shoes combine comfort and fine craftsmanship to create something more than just footwear; they are a representation of Punjab's cultural identity.
Honouring the Multifaceted Culture of Punjab
Embroidered with strands of history, customs, and creative genius, Punjab is a dynamic cultural tapestry located in the centre of India. After delving into several aspects of this captivating area, such as the Golden Temple, which serves as a spiritual sanctuary, the joyous celebrations of Lohri and Vaisakhi, and the artistic manifestations of Phulkari embroidery and Punjabi Jutti, we are left in awe of the depth of Punjab history.

1. The land of Saptasindhavah (सप्तसिन्धवः)
Since the dawn of civilization, the mighty Himalayas have always protected the people living in Indian sub-continent, not only from natural phenomena like sandstorms originating on central Asia plains or blistering arctic cold winds or great floodwaters sweeping the north Indian plains, that could have created existential problems for the early settlers. The unscalable peaks and ranges of world’s tallest mountain also prevented the barbaric wild Asian steppe hordes, attacking and destroying the inhabitations, including cities and towns of subcontinent, the way they did in China and east Europe.
Yet, in spite of this guardian angel, protecting our borders, wild hordes of invaders and intruders, cruel and murderous tribesmen, monarchs, brave warriors with monarchy aspirations and people who themselves were pushed out from their country, found routes that circumambulated the vast mountain ranges and enter the sub-continent over last two millennia. These intruders and their barbaric armies, created a profound impact on the culture of the sub-continent that had evolved over last five or more millennia, starting from Sindhu-Sarswati Civilization, the Vedic era, Buddhist ideas and finally the Sanatan Dharma. Some of the early intruders adopted to native religions, but some imposed their own religious doctrines, creating a great divisive force that continues to torment the sub-continent, even today.
It so happens that the most profound impact of the intruders took place in a geographical area of the subcontinent, where Sindhu-Sarswati civilization once flourished five or more millennia ago. This land could be rightly called as the heart or core of the sub-continent culture. This region, in the northwest corner of the sub-continent, is none other than the land of seven rivers or Saptasindhavah (सप्तसिन्धवः) of the Vedas.
In the oldest Veda or Rigveda, the sage Angirasa, while offering oblation to Sun God ‘Savita” describes him as,
अ॒ष्टौ व्य॑ख्यत्क॒कुभः॑ पृथि॒व्यास्त्री धन्व॒ योज॑ना स॒प्त सिन्धू॑न् । हि॒र॒ण्या॒क्षः स॑वि॒ता दे॒व आगा॒द्दध॒द्रत्ना॑ दा॒शुषे॒ वार्या॑णि ॥ (1.35.8)
“He has lighted up the eight points of the horizon, the three regions of living beings, the seven rivers; may the golden-eyes Savitā come hither, bestowing upon the offerer of the oblation desirable riches.”
The next question that naturally arises is the names of rivers that constitute this land of seven rivers. Luckily Rigveda helps us even here. The Nadistuti sukta (नदिस्तुति सूक्त), or “the hymn in praise of rivers”, gives us names of these seven rivers for the reconstruction of the geography of this area.
The first and foremost river that this Sukta (10.75.1) mentions is obviously Sindhu or The Indus, the mightiest of them all. Other rivers that are mentioned (10.75.5) in east to west direction are Sarasvati, Shutudri (Sutlej), Parushni (Iravati, Ravi), Asikni (Chenab) and finally Vitasta (Jhelum). This defines the land of seven rivers as the region that begins with Sarswati in the east, but does not end with Indus in the west.
The next verse (10.75.6) describes the tributaries like Kubha (Kabul River), Gomati (Gomal) and Krumu (Kurram),that merge with Sindhu in the plains. Using this information, we can create a map of the landmass, which Rigveda describes as ‘Saptasindhav’. We must also include here the plains, west of Indus River that stretch to the mountains and also the Basin of no longer visible Sarswati River, now found only through archaeological and satellite data. However, we shall not indulge in that endeavor as it is unrelated to our subject matter. Figure 1.1 shows the exact locations of these rivers except River Sarswati.

Dam Construction | Types of Dams | List of India’s Mighty Dams
Dams, those imposing structures that rise across rivers, have captivated humanity for millennia. From ancient irrigation systems to modern hydroelectric powerhouses, they have shaped civilizations and landscapes alike. Today, we embark on a journey to explore the world of dam construction, delve into the different types of dams, and finally, showcase some of India’s most impressive dam creations.
Dam Construction
Building a dam is no small feat. It’s a complex process involving careful planning, meticulous engineering, and immense physical labor.
Site Selection: The very first step is choosing the ideal location. Faktoren like the river’s flow, bedrock strength, and surrounding topography are crucial considerations.
Diversion and Excavation: To access the riverbed, engineers divert the water flow through temporary channels. Then, excavation begins, often requiring massive earthmoving equipment to prepare the foundation.
Material Sourcing and Transportation: Millions of tons of concrete, rock, and sometimes steel are needed for dam construction. Sourcing these materials and transporting them to the site can be a logistical challenge.
Construction Techniques: Depending on the dam type, various techniques are employed. For gravity dams, massive concrete pours are needed, while embankment dams involve compacting layers of earth and rock.
Quality Control and Safety: Throughout the construction process, rigorous quality control measures are implemented to ensure the dam’s structural integrity and safety.
Types of Dams
The world of dams is diverse, with each type suited to specific purposes and terrains. In general, these are the most common:
Gravity Dams: These massive structures rely on their weight to resist water pressure. They’re typically built from concrete and are known for their stability and longevity.
Arch Dams: These curved structures transfer water pressure to the abutments on either side. They’re often used in narrow gorges and are known for their efficiency and elegance.
Embankment Dams: These are the most common type, made of compacted earth or rock. They’re cost-effective but require careful design and maintenance.
Other Types: Other dam types include buttress dams, rockfill dams, and concrete-face rockfill dams, each with its own unique design and advantages.
Dams In India
India boasts a rich history of dam construction, with over 5,300 dams across the country. These impressive structures not only provide irrigation and flood control but also generate a significant portion of India’s hydropower.
Top Dams In India
Tehri Dam: The tallest dam in India, standing at a staggering 260.5 meters, Tehri Dam is a marvel of modern engineering. Its hydropower station generates 1,000 MW of electricity.
Bhakra Nangal Dam: This iconic dam on the Sutlej River is a symbol of India’s post-independence development. It provides irrigation to millions of hectares of land and generates 1,500 MW of electricity.
Hirakud Dam: The longest dam in India, stretching over 23 km, Hirakud Dam is a lifeline for the eastern state of Odisha. It provides irrigation, flood control, and 300 MW of hydropower.
Nagarjuna Sagar Dam: This massive dam on the Krishna River is a key source of irrigation for Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Its hydropower station generates 825 MW of electricity.
These are just a few examples of the numerous dams that dot the Indian landscape. Each dam tells a story of human ingenuity, collaboration, and the ongoing quest to harness the power of water for our benefit.
Future of Dams:
While dams offer undeniable benefits, concerns about their environmental and social impacts have emerged. Issues like displacement of communities, disruption of ecosystems, and downstream sedimentation are crucial considerations. As we move forward, responsible dam construction and exploring alternative renewable energy sources like solar and wind will be critical in ensuring a sustainable future.
Dams, with their imposing presence and intricate construction, serve as powerful reminders of our ability to shape the world around us.
