New Tungabhadra Dam Gates Ready For Inauguration Today

The newly installed gates of the Tungabhadra Dam, a key water source for Karnataka, AP, & TG, will be inaugurated today. Union Minister CR Patil and CMs Chandrababu, Revanth, and Shivakumar will attend the event. The project was undertaken after the 19th gate was washed away during floods in August 2024. All 33 gates were replaced at a cost of ₹51 crore.
