Bharasar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bharasar is a small village in the Kutch District of Gujarat, India. The main religion of the villagers is Hinduism, Swaminarayan Sampraday.
Many have immigrated to the United Kingdom.
Within the area is the ancient Harappan Dam of Bharasar, which is the area of the origin of the tributary of the river Zadko from the hills of Khatrod Lanki area near hills of Bharasar.
Originally, Haraappan Dam was 500 meter south. Actual overflow of the water from the dam was collected by a small reservoir near the old Bharasar (Harrappam time - 2000BC). It was called Bhara Sar, which refers to Sarovar, suggesting a lake was located there. Later, Maharao shri Bharmalji resettled the Village, and it was called a new name, Bhara Sar.
Overflow of dam water from the reservoir was utilised for irrigation in the lower area by means of ground water channels cut in the stones of the grounds. When required, the necessary water was acquired from the original dam above the level of the big dam, the actual Harrappan dam.
Bharasar Ghaam is located near manukuwa.
