Bhakra Dam

Bhakra Dam is a large concrete structure built across the Beas River in northern India, creating the Gobind Sagar reservoir. It was constructed to control flooding, generate hydroelectric power, and supply water for irrigation. The dam's massive size helps store water during the rainy season, which is then used throughout the year for agriculture and electricity production. It is a symbol of engineering achievement and plays a vital role in India's water and energy management, supporting regional development and stability.
