MESSAGE FROM MINISTER FOR IRRIGATION

Punjab Irrigation Department transformed the arid plains of Punjab into the granary of the Indian Subcontinent, bringing prosperity to the inhabitants to its hard-working farmers.  Over a century old crumbling infrastructure is stretched to the limit to provide reliable and equitable water supplies of the ever increasing demands of the farm and non-farm sectors. We shall strive to restore the prestige and glory of the Punjab Irrigation Department by rehabilitating the infrastructure, formulating and implementing comprehensive legislation on water resources, investing in development of our Human Resources and most importantly root out favoritism and nepotism in the department.
