Sharda Barrage, Hydraulic barrage in Lakhimpur Kheri district, India.
The Sharda Barrage spans across the Sharda River with a 258-kilometer-long feeder channel originating from its right bank to distribute water throughout the region.
The construction of this substantial water management structure began in 1962 and reached completion in 1975, marking a significant advancement in regional irrigation capabilities.
The barrage forms part of the Sharda Sahayak Pariyojana initiative, which supports agricultural practices for millions of farmers across 150 development blocks in eastern Uttar Pradesh.
Located 28 kilometers from Lakhimpur city, the barrage diverts water through multiple canal branches including Dariyabad, Barabanki, Haidergarh, Bareilly, and Purva.
During lean seasons, the barrage maintains water distribution for over eight months yearly, managing irrigation across 16,770 square kilometers of cultivable land.
