DISTRICT PROFILE

The District Kapurthala, known as city of Palaces & Gardens, is considered to be one of the
smallest district of Punjab both in terms of area & population. The secular and aesthetic mix of
the city with its prominent buildings based on French and Indo- Saracenic architecture self-
narrate its princely past. The district is divided into two non-contiguous parts namely:-

a) Main Kapurthala – Sultanpur Lodhi Portion:

The Kapurthala-Sultanpur Lodhi part lies between north latitude 31° 07' and 31° 22' and east
longitude 75° 36'. In the north it is bounded by Hoshiarpur, Kapurthala, and Amritsar districts,
in the west by the Beas River and Amritsar and Tarn Taran district, and in south by the Sutlej
River, Jalandhar district, and Hoshiarpur district.

b) Phagwara Tehsil or Block:


Phagwara tehsil lies between north latitude 31° 22' and east longitude 75° 40' and 75° 55'.
Phagwara lies on the National Highway No. 1 and the tehsil is much more industrially
developed than remaining Kapurthala district. Phagwara is situated at a distance of 19
kilometers southwest of Jalandhar and the tehsil is bounded on all sides by Jalandhar District
except in the northeast, where it is bounded by Hoshiarpur district and Shaheed Bhagat Singh
Nagar.
The economy of the district is still predominantly agricultural. The total area of the District is
1633 Km2. The major portion of Kapurthala district lies between the Beas River and the Kali-
Bein River and is called the ‘BET’ area.
According to the 2011 census Kapurthala district has a population of 815,168. This gives it a
ranking of 481st out of total 640 districts in India. The district has population density of 499
inhabitants per square kilometre. Its population growth rate over the decade 2001- 2011 was
8.03 %. District Kapurthala has a sex ratio of 912 females for every 1000 males and a literacy

The ground water in this region is suitable for irrigational and domestic uses. The sub soil water
depth ranges from 5 to 8 metres in most part of the district. Due to Dhusibandh and stepped floods
the water table has gone very low.
SOILS: -
The soils are loamy with a clay content below 7.5 to 8.5 percent. They contain small quantities of
lime but the magnesium content is high. They are well supplied in potash and phosphoric acid but
the quantities available are low. The agriculture is dependent to a large extent on the nature of its
soils which in turn, is influenced materially by climatic factors. The soil of the district is quite alluvial
and fertile. The district consists of 5 kinds of soils viz, Bet, Loamy, Sandy, Sierozems and Sodic &
Saline soil. The area falls near Beas River is called Bet and Sandy. The area of Phagwara and Central
part of Kapurthala District is called Loamy soil. The western parts of Kapurthala District cover with
Sierozems soil. The Sultanpur Lodhi Tehsil and South Western part of District Kapurthala have un-
cultivated moderately to severly Sodic & Sline soil which are water logged pockets.
MINERALS: -
The sand is found from the River bed of the Beas river and outside river Beas Bed due to flood
situation in rainy season.

stretch of 160 Km merges with River Beas at Harike Pattan. The flow in the Holy Bein is about 500
cusecs including fresh water @ 200 to 250 cusec from Mukerian Hydle Channel. The major stretch
of Holy Bein is in Distt. Kapurthala and major towns of Distt. Kapurthala on the bank of Bein are
Kapurthala, Sultanpur Lodhi, Begowal, Bholath with their disposal of waste water into Bein
alongwith disposal of waste water from villages mainly Village Rawal & 27 nos. Colonies.

 Availability of Water Resources

Central Ground Water Authority has been constituted under Section 3 (3) of the Environmental
(Protection) Act, 1986 to regulate and control development and management of ground water
resources in the country.

The annual replenish able ground water resources availability plays an important role in defining
the guidelines. The latest assessment of the state wise ground water resources is available at the
Central Ground Water Board web site (www.cgwb.gov.in). As per Blockwise Ground Water
Resources Assessment Report, 2020 available on the CGWB website, following blocks of Distt

Kapurthala-Sultanpur Lodhi Region:

This region comprises the Tehsils of Kapurthala and SultanpurLodhi. The major portion of this
region lies in the river tract falling between the Beas and Black Bein and is called ‘BET’. The area is
frequently flooded during the rainy season. A flood protection ‘Bund’ namely the ‘Dhusi Bandh’ has
been constructed along the left bank of the river Beas and along the Black Bein from Sultanpur
Lodhi onwards. It has saved the area from the ravages of floods. Paddy, wheat and sugarcane are
the principal crops of this area. Waterlogging and alkaline salts [Kallar] are a great handicap for
cultivation. The major portion of the region has officially been declared backward. To the south of
the Black Bein lies the tract known as ‘Dona’. The word ‘Dona’ means that the soil is formed of two
constituents, sand and clay, with sand predominating. Wheat and Paddy are the principal products
of this area.
Page | 9
The common trees found in the area are Kikar, Shisham, Poplar and Eucelyptus. Sultanpur Lodhi
Tehsil is known for its palm trees. Mango trees are found in abundance in the area bordering
Hoshiarpur District. Among the common shrubs found in the ‘Bet’ area are Leh, Jhau, Plichi, and
Blaatc. Among the aqutaic plants, the more important are Ajal, Karali and Bhalu. Sarkanda and Kahi
are useful reeds found in the riverain tract. Kans is found in sandy soil.
Phagwara Region:
The Phagwara region consists of the Sirwal, Dhak and Manjki tracts lying roughly in the North-East,
middle and South-East of the tehsils. Sirwal possesses the characteristics of the ‘Bet’; the numerous
hill streams coming down from Hoshiarpur District keep the soil moist all the year round. Some of
these streams are silt laden and at first deposit fertile soil though their later deposits are more and
more sandy. Due to the existence of these drainage channels patches and stratas of hard clay are
also to be found. Vegetables are grown in abundance in this area. the principal crops are wheat and
sugarcane and paddy.
