Summary of Perspective Plan 3. Perspective Work Plan 2000-2007 Brief Profile of District Amritsar Location Amritsar, the most populated district in the state, is one of the border districts, which share international boundaries with Pakistan. It is situated in the north- western part of the state in the Bari Doab, a territory situated between Beas and Ravi rivers.. The district is the heart throb of Majha folk region now forming the districts of Amritsar and Gurdaspur, once ruled by Manjh P.ajputs. It falls in Jalandhar Division and is suiTOunded by Gurdaspur district in the north-east; Kapurthala district in the east, separated by Beas river; Ferozepur district in the south, separated by Satluj river; and Pakistan in the west and north-west, partly separated by Ravi river. Origin of Name The districts takes its name from the city of the same name, which is the seat of district headquarters and best known as the home of ‘Golden Temple, also called ‘Hari Mandir’ or ‘Darbar Sahib’. The city however, derives its name from the tank surrounding the Golden Temple’. Literally speaking, Amritsar means, the tank of nectar or the tank of immortality. The shrine being considered sacred, a bath (Ashnan) therein is considered as purifying. The shrine and the tank was,built, by Guru Ram Dass» the fourth Sikh Guru, who was the founder of Amrtisar city, on a part of laiid received as grant frorn Mughal Emperor Akbar. Area According to 2001 census, Amritsar district has an area of 5096 sq kms., which ranks 2nd for any other district in the state (Annexure-I). Climate The climate of this district is characterised by general dryness, except during the brief southwest monsoon, a hot summer and a bracing winter. The year may be divided into four seasons. The cold season is from November to March. The period from April to June is the hot season. The south-west monsoon season is from about the beginning of July to first week of September. The succeeding period lasting till the beginning of November is the post monsoon or transition period. From about the end of March, temperature increases steadily till June, which is the hottest month when the maximum temperature may reach 45^ C. With the on set of the monsoon in the district by about the end of June or in the beginning of July, there is appreciable drop in the day temperature. The nights arc, however, as warm during the monsoon season as in the summer and owing to ihe increased moisture in the air, the weather is often oppressive. After the withdrawal of the monsoon in early September, whereas the day temperature remains the same as in the monsoon season, the nights become progressively cooler. From October, there is rapid drop in temperature. January is generally the coldest month. During the cold season, the district is affected by cold waves due to the western disturbances and minimum temperatures occasionally drop by a degree or two below the freezing point of water. Frosts are common during the cold season. The average rainfall in the district is 207.9mm and increases generally from the south-west towards the north-east. About 74 per cent of the annual normal rainfall in the district is received during the period from June to September and as much as 18 per cent of the annual rainfall occurs during the period from December to February. However, variation of rainfall from year to year is appreciable (Annexure-I). Topography Lying between the Beas river to the east and the Ravi river to the west, the Amritsar district, which forms the lower part of the Upper Bari Doab, is one of the interfluvial tracts of the Punjab plain. The Beas river, joins the Satluj river near the point where the three districts of Ferozepur, Amritsar and Kapurthala meet. The physiography of Amritsar district is the product of alluviation by the Beas and the Ravi river. The existing soil is a light reddish-yellow loam, known to the people as maira, but it stiffens into rohi or clay, in which the surface drainage collects on its w'ay down the Doab from the hills, and occasionally degenerates into strips of sandy, slightly uneven soil, locally known as tibba, bare of trees and apt to be blown into hummocks by the wind. There are no hills within the area of the district, and nothing of the nature of rock or stone is to be seen. The formation is strictly alluvial. Though apparently of a uniform level, the country falls away to the west from the high right bank of the Beas to the left bank of Ravi and there is also a gentle slope, of perhaps one feet and a quarter in a kilometer, down the Doab, which slightly broadens out as the two rivers diverge after issuing from the hills above Gurdaspur, The district is devoid of impressive natural features, except the dhaya, as the cliffs forming the high bank of the Beas arc called, the sandy ridge running down the doab, the scarcely perceptible drainage lines which carry off the surface water and the perennial stream known as the Sakki. I'he Amritsar district is a continuous level plain, unbroken by hills or valleys. It ranges in its elevation (Vom about 200 meter in the north-east to about 175 meters in the south-west. Thus the slope of the land is from north east to south-west, with a gentle gradient of one meter in four kilometer. It points out that the district has a Hat topography in general. i) The Upland Plain Covering about 88 per cent of the total area, the upland plain spreads over a large part of the district, except the western half of Ajnala tehsil, the eastern margins of Baba Bakala and Tarn Taran tehsils and the southern part of Patti tehsil. This plain abruptly rises above the Beas river in the east and slopes very gently towards the Ravi.
