Chirai River, also known as Sakara River, is a river in Gujarat in western India, whose origin is above the ancient city of Khirsara. Its basin has a maximum length of 30 km. The total catchment area of the basin is 365 km2.^[1]

The Tapar Dam (Tappar Dam) on the Chirai was completed in 1975 (23°15′07″N 70°08′11″E / 23.25194°N 70.13639°E / 23.25194; 70.13639). It was an earthen embankment dam with a concrete cover, 4,575 meters long and 17.75 meters high. It was designed to hold 48.81 million cubic meters of water.^[2] The dam failed as a result of the January 2001 Bhuj earthquake, and was subsequently rebuilt.^[3] The Tapar Reservoir (Tapar Reservoir) provides water for the Gandhidham metropolitan area and the port at Kandla.^[3]
