Panjnad Headworks (Punjabi, Urdu: پنجند) is located in Punjab, Pakistan. It is a beautiful picnic spot and an agricultural area near Uch, Bahawalpur and it is where all the five rivers of Punjab merge.

Panjnad Headworks or Panjnad barrage has three canals: Panjnad canal, Abbassia canal, and Abbassia link canal.[1] In 2020 head punjnad barrage remodelling was done to increase the water passing capacity for semi-automatic control of gates. These canals irrigate Bahawalpur and Rahim Yar Khan districts and the northern Sindh area.[2][3]
