Abstract
Abstract: The Jhelum originates in the Indian-administered part of the Kashmir region, in western Jammu and Kashmir union territory, in Vernag, from a deep spring. The river flows through the Vale of Kashmir and meanders northwest from the northern slope of the Pir Panjal Range to Wular Lake in Srinagar, which regulates its flow. The Jhelum emerges from the lake and flows west, forming a valley with nearly perpendicular sides that passes the Pir Panjal at a depth of around 7,000 feet (2,100 meters). The Jhelum meets the Kishanganga River near Muzaffarabad, the administrative hub of Azad Kashmir in the Pakistani-administered region of Kashmir. From there, it bends southward, forming a portion of the border between Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Pakistan, to the west, and Azad Kashmir to the east
