In order to avert the danger of frequent floods of Yamuna river in Delhi and surrounding areas, the Haryana government has decided to construct a dam. This strategic initiative is not only aimed at mitigating the effects of floods but also has several other benefits.
The primary objective behind the decision of the Haryana government to build the dam is to stop the devastating floods caused by the Yamuna River. These floods continue to pose a major threat to the city of Delhi and areas adjacent to the river in Haryana. By building dams, the authorities aim to regulate and manage water flow, thereby protecting lives and properties.
The dam project, with its lofty goals of flood prevention and management, comes with a substantial estimated cost. The Haryana government is all set to invest a huge amount of Rs 6,134 crore to execute this infrastructure initiative.
