Warsak Dam is built on which river?

A. Indus River
B. Jhelum River
C. Kabul River
D. Swat River
Correct Answer: C. Kabul River

The Warsak Dam is a prominent hydroelectric project located on the Kabul River in Pakistan, near Peshawar. It was one of the earliest large-scale dams constructed in the region, primarily for power generation and irrigation.

  • The Indus River is Pakistan's longest river, but Warsak Dam is not built on it; other major dams like Tarbela are on the Indus.
  • The Jhelum River is a tributary of the Indus, known for the Mangla Dam.
  • The Swat River is a tributary of the Kabul River, but the dam itself is on the main Kabul River.
