Sahiwal Division

Overview

Sahiwal Division is one of the ten Divisions of Pakistan's Punjab province. Sahiwal Division is situated in east-central Punjab, along the N-5 National Highway, roughly equidistant from Lahore and Multan. It is bordered by Faisalabad Division to the west, Lahore Division to the north, Bahawalpur Division and India to the east, and Multan Division to the south. The division is located on the floodplains of two major rivers: the Ravi River to the west and the Sutlej River to the east. Additionally, the dry Khushak Bias channel traverses the region, forming a natural boundary between Sahiwal District and Pakpattan District. With an elevation of approximately 500 ft (150 m) above sea level, parts of the division rise to over 200 meters, contributing to its varied topography.
