==Budki superpassage==<br />
When the [[Sirhind Canal]] was constructed in 1882 to better spread the waters of the Sutlej, its path cut across that of the Budki Nadi. An elevated "superpassage" was built to ensure continued uninterrupted passage to the flood torrent of the Budki Nadi, which at this stage combines the waters of both the Budki Nadi and its Sugh Rao tributary torrent.<ref name="ref29xuvod">{{Citation | title=The irrigation works of India | author=Robert Burton Buckley | publisher=E. & F.
