Due to no maintenance of this project following damages have been
occurred in the last many years and needs repair/ renovation-
(a) Dam & Waste Weir
(i) Pitching is damaged and settled in many reaches of the left side
flank.
(ii) Earthwork is damaged and heavy rain cuts formed in many
reaches.
(b) Canals & Canal system
(i) There exist two main canals namely LMC & RMC. No repair works
on these canals were carried out for a long time due to a paucity of
funds. Through these canals, the land of 34 villages is getting the
benefit of irrigation.
(ii)The left main canal has a length of 6.90 km. with a
discharge at head 1.597 cumecs. Similarly, the right main canal
has a length of 20.7 km. with a discharge at head 5.513 cumecs.
During the rainy season lot of Malwa is deposited in the bed of the canal
and these canals are at present in a damaged condition and
require repairs/renovation.
Objectives of the Project
1. To increase Irrigation Intensity through the canal.
2. To prevention of losses due to unlined canals.
3. To Minimization of chances of piping through the dam.
4. To Provide Strengthen to the dam and waste weir.
