2018 DISTRICT ADMINISTRATION, YAMUNANAGAR 1 | Page Sr.No. of Chapters Name Chapters 1 Introduction a. Geographical setting of the District. Yamunanagar came into existence on 1st November 1989. At present the District has three sub Divisions (Jagadhri, Bilaspur, Radaur), Four Tehsil (Jagadhri, Chhachhrauli, Bilaspur, Radaur) and three sub Tehsils (Sadhaura, Sarswati Nagar, Khizrabad). A number of Streams and rivulets flow through this district mainly draining into the Yamuna, Somb and Pathrala rivers. River Yamuna Passes along the eastern boundary of this district dividing it from district Saharanpur of U.P. State. The important rivers, streams and rivulets passing through this district are Yamuna, Somb, Pathrala, Chautang, Sadhura Nadi part of the Markanda River etc. Whenever there are heavy rains, large areas of the district are affected by heavy discharge in the catchment areas of Himachal Pradesh. On the basis of information available, heavy rains/ floods affected the district badly in the years 1978, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1995, 1998, 2008, 2010, 2011 & 2013. Khadar area of this district along river Yamuna was affected by high floods. It has been experienced that people of this area have always taken the floods in their stride and they hardly faced any difficulty before 1978. It was in this year that villages like Kalesar, Mandewala, Mamdubas, Kaniawala, Bhilpura, Lakarmai Partappur, Nawajpur, Mandoli Gaggar, Kanalsi, Bhogpur, Bibipur Lapra, Karera, Model Town, Kamalpur Tapu, Bagwali, Jathlana, Lal Chappra, Sandhala, Gumthala, Pobari etc. were cut off due to over flow of water in river Yamuna as its discharge exceeded 8 lacs cusecs. The discharge in river Yamuna reaches to 8.63 lacs cusecs in the year 2013. It is therefore imperative that the District Administration is properly geared up to face floods with full preparation so that damage is controlled. Yamunanagar District Flood Control Order 2016 has been drawn out as a guideline for those concerned in the district during the current rainy season. Depending on the actual scale of floods these measures will have to be appropriately adjusted according to the need of the hour. b. Administrative setup of the district.
