The Pinjaur dun is a NW–SE trending intermontane valley in the foothills belt of the Punjab
Sub-Himalaya. In this dun, the Kiratpur and the Balad Rivers have formed fans with areas
of∼ 28 and∼ 21km2, respectively. A southwest tilt for the Kiratpur and Balad fans of 0.83°
and 0.57°, respectively, has been determined. Based on these angles of tilt, uplifts of∼ 41
and∼ 46m at the fan head has been calculated for the Kiratpur and Balad fans, respectively.
The incision by the Kiratpur and Balad Rivers at the fan heads is also approximately 45m.
