Nagarjuna Sagar Dam

Nagarjuna Sagar Dam is a large, concrete gravity dam built across the Krishna River in India, completed in 1967. It is one of the world's largest masonry dams and serves multiple purposes, including irrigation, water supply, and hydroelectric power generation. The dam creates Nagarjuna Sagar Lake, a vast reservoir that supports agriculture and provides drinking water for nearby regions. Its construction was a major engineering achievement, helping to improve regional development and ensure water availability in the semi-arid area it serves.
