Nara Canal
Left Bank Outfall Drain to the west of Nara Canal, built much later (starting in the 1960s and 80s) than Nara Canal, the LBOD was designed to solve the waterlogging and salinity problems caused by intensive irrigation from canals like the Nara. It collects salty groundwater and industrial/agricultural waste from the left bank of the Indus and carries it south to be dumped into the sea. The "Spinal Drain" of the LBOD runs parallel to the Nara Canal system for much of its journey through southern Sindh collecting drainage and waste water from the command areas of the Nara, Ghotki, and Rohri canals. Both systems eventually head toward the Shakoor Lake and the Rann of Kutch. Historically, the Nara River carved the path; the LBOD now utilizes parts of that same low-lying topography to move waste water.
