Description | The Mahey Tokpo-Raldho irrigation canal is India's first high-altitude irrigation canal located at 14,000 feet in the Changthang area of Ladakh. The 2.1-km canal channels water from Yaya Lake, Ladakh's first Biodiversity Heritage Site, to provide irrigation facilities to 100 acres of land, transforming the region into a highly productive agricultural zone. The canal aims to reduce dependence on seasonal glacier melt and traditional water channels by offering a more reliable and structured water distribution system. |
