Morni hills constitute the highest point of the district as well as of Haryana. The Ghaggar is the only perennial river, which is very shallow outside of the monsoons.

The Kaushalya river rises in the Shivalik hills on the border of Haryana and Himachal Pradesh, and flows through Panchkula district and confluences with Ghaggar river near Pinjore just downstream of Kaushalya Dam.Generally, the slope of the district is from north east to south west and in this direction, most of the rivers/streams rain-fed torrents flow down and spread much gravel and pebbles in their beds. Only the Sirsa river, in Kalka Tehsil flows towards the north-west. The soils in the district are mainly light loam.The underground water in the district is generally fresh and suitable for domestic and irrigation purposes.

Irrigation pattern The district is mainly drained by the river Ghaggar and its tributaries. A small patch of northwest part of the district is drained by north westerly flowing Sirsa nadi, as its tributaries east-west direction before joining Sirsa nadi, which is tributary of Sutlej river. Panchkula district is bestowed with rich water resources, both surface as well as ground water resources. The ground water is major sources of irrigation in the district. Net irrigated area is 80Km2 whereas, gross irrigated area 180 Km2. Percentage of gross area irrigated to total cropped area is 91 4. Land use/land cover change in Panchkula district Population of peripheral areaof Panchkula has increased about five times during last three decades. In 1971, population of peripheral controlled area was 84,143 persons inhabiting in 154 villages out of which rural population was 73.92 percent against 26.08 percent of urban population. In1981, the population of peripheral area increased to 124,604 persons with adecadal growth rate of 48 percent whereas the urban population has increasedto 30.78 percent over the corresponding previous decade. In 1991, population further increased to 222,346 persons with a growth rate of 78.6 percent. In thelast two decades, increase in population of peripheral area was almost 3 timeswhich may be considered substantial increase by any planning norms. This huge population increase in the area is attributed to establishment of various special government projects like HMT, Chandimandir Cantonment, ITBP Complex, Terminal Ballistic Research Laboratory, Panchkula, Urban Estate, and nearness to Chandigarh which experienced tremendous socio- economic and physical development of infrastructure. These factors togetherly acted as Page | 8 FLOOD CONTROL ORDER, PANCHKULA 2021 centripetal force to attract huge number of migrants from neighbouring regions. Broad landuse categories which include agricultural and allied activities, built-up, reserve forest, vegetal cover, specialarea, water bodies, mining and slums were identified as the key factors that influenced the stark changes in this area. It is the fact that agricultural land has been declining continuously and is being replaced by the built up area. The area devoted to agricultural purposes was 43 percent in 1972 which declined to 38 percent during next two decades and further declined to 30 percent in 2008. Despite changes, area under forests has remained stagnant as it is protected by central and state legislations. Interestingly, the area under built-up land has sharply increased. Built-up land was hardly 1percent in 1972 in the controlled area. Proportion of built up land has increased to9 percent in 1990 and further to about 18 percent in 2008. The area under built-up use was earlier used as agricultural land.Increase in built up area has taken place because of new planned residential sectors known as Panchkula Urban Estate and increasing urban sprawl due to nearnessto capital and good accessibility through network of roads such as NH-22 and Delhi- Chandigarh railway route.
