It is located close to the settlement of Krishnarajasagara in the Indian State of Karnataka. Kannambadi was a village near Mysore. It was chosen as the site for the construction of the Krishna Raja Sagara Dam in 1910. The village subsequently submerged under the water after the dam was completed. Because of this fact the dam is also known as Kannambadi katte in Kannada. The gravity dam made of surki mortar is situated below the confluence of river Kaveri with its tributaries Hemavati and Lakshmana Tirtha, in the district of Mandya. There is an ornamental garden attached to the dam, called Brindavan Gardens. Mysore Kings laid the foundation of Krishnaraj sagar Dam on Kaveri river . The then Chief Engineer of Mysore M. Visvesvaraya presented a blueprint of a dam to be built across the River near the village of Kannambadi to Maharaja Krishna Raja Wadiyar IV. Construction began in November 1911. A mortar known locally as surki was used in place of cement as the latter was not manufactured in India at the time, and importing would prove costly for the state. The construction was completed in 1931. It is the main source of water for the districts of Mysore. The water is used for irrigation in Mysore and Mandya and it is the main source of drinking water for all of Mysore, Mandya and almost the whole of Bengaluru city, the capital of the state of Karnataka. The cavery water released from this dam flows into the state of Tamil Nadu, and is stored in Mettur dam in the Salem district. There are 104 crest gates in KRS dam at various levels. 16 gates for water when the level reaches 80 feet. 48 two tier gates when water level reaches 103 feet. 40 gates when the water level reaches 106 feet . Water flows from these gates automatically. The dam is a technical marvel as it maintains water and allows the flow of water simultaneously. Contact me at [email protected] |
