One of the five rivers of the Punjab in northern Pakistan. Total length 764 km. In ancient Sanskrit documents it was written as the Irāvatī River, from which the present name is said to have been derived. It originates in the Pir Panjal Mountains in northwestern Himachal Pradesh, India, flows northwest, enters the Punjab Plain, and flows southwest to the Chenab River. From the mid-19th century, the Upper and Lower Bari Doab Canals were constructed using the river as a water source, contributing to the development of the Doab. After the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947, a conflict arose between the two countries over the water rights. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
パキスタン北部,パンジャーブ五河の一つ。全長764km。古代サンスクリット文献ではイラーバティーIrāvatī川と記され,現名はそれより派生したといわれる。インドのヒマーチャル・プラデーシュ州北西部のピール・パンジャール山脈に発して北西に流れ,パンジャーブ平原に入って南西流しチェナーブ川に注ぐ。19世紀中期から上・下バーリ・ドアーブ用水路などが同川を水源として建設され,同ドアーブの開拓に貢献した。1947年のインド・パキスタン分離独立により,その水利権をめぐって両国間に抗争が生じた。
