Why is it called the Pehure Canal?
The Pehure Canal is named after Pehure, a place or sector located in the Hamlet of Swabi, within the Tehsil of Topi. The people of Pehure were primarily affected during the construction of the Tarbela Dam, as they gave up their lands for the dam's construction. As a result, the canal was named after Pehure High Level Cansl to honor their contribution.
