Neeli Bar (Urdu: نیلی بار) is a geographical region in Punjab, Pakistan,[1] located between the rivers Ravi and Satluj.[2][3][4]
"Bar" is the name given to areas in Punjab which were thick forests before the arrival of the modern canal irrigation system. Its soil is very fertile, as this plain is formed by the mud that has been collected over millennia by rivers flowing from the Himalayas. This region consists of the districts Sahiwal, Okara and Pakpattan in Pakistani Punjab. This region is famous for the domestic water buffalo breed, the Nili-Ravi.[3][5]
