Nomenclature: Parakot Reservoir vs Kherkatta Reservoir

[edit]

Paralkot Reservoir (परलकोट जलाशय) is the official name of the waterbody in its entirety as referred to in Govt and reputed media publications, as well as in road markers. The name Kherkatta dam (खेरकट्टा बांध) applies only to the spillway side located near the Kherkatta village. Technically Kherkatta dam is built on Paralkot Reservoir, it is not the reservoir itself. Hence, Kherkatta Reservoir (खेरकट्टा जलाशय) is a misnomer.
