Pashulok Barrage, Combined dam and bridge on Ganges River in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, India.

Pashulok Barrage is a barrage on the Ganges just south of Rishikesh in Dehradun district, Uttarakhand. In a run-of-the-river scheme it diverts water into a canal on the east bank of the river, which feeds the Chilla Power Plant 4 km upstream of Haridwar. The plant has four 36 MW Kaplan turbine-generators, a total installed capacity of 144 MW, a hydraulic head of 32.5 m and a design discharge of 560 m3/s.

The Pashulok Barrage was built on the Ganges just south of Rishikesh as part of a run-of-the-river hydroelectric scheme. Its purpose is to divert water into a canal on the east bank, which feeds the Chilla Power Plant about 4 km upstream of Haridwar. That plant runs four 36 MW Kaplan turbine-generators, a total installed capacity of 144 MW, with a hydraulic head of 32.5 m and a design discharge of 560 m3/s.

The barrage diverts Ganges water into a canal on the east bank, which carries it about 4 km downstream to the Chilla Power Plant, upstream of Haridwar. The plant's four 36 MW Kaplan turbine-generators give an installed capacity of 144 MW, working with a hydraulic head of 32.5 m and a design discharge of 560 m3/s.

The barrage lies on the Ganges just south of Rishikesh in Dehradun district, Uttarakhand. Its canal runs along the east bank to feed the Chilla Power Plant, 4 km upstream of Haridwar. The site is an operating industrial facility, so access is subject to safety rules rather than open visiting.

The structure operates as a run-of-river scheme where water flows continuously rather than being stored in a large reservoir. This design approach allows electricity generation with less environmental disruption than traditional dams.
