Abstract Bari Doab is depleting the most in groundwater and therefore needs to be recharged. This paper presents a possibility of recharging through abandoned Sukh-Beas channel. For this purpose, 25 cross sections were taken ten infiltration tests performed. Three different HEC-RAS models run find its channel capacity at reaches. The Nallah was found total about 808 cfs, which can used recharge groundwater, after some necessary steps have been improve infrastructure.
