It's a non-perennial canal with a planned discharge capacity of 15000 cusec, was built in 1955 to address the irrigation water needs of the left bank regions of lower Sindh. The canal starts at the Ghulam Muhammad Barrage on the left side of the Indus River and runs through Hyderabad, Sindh's second biggest city.
