Ukai Dam ❤


The Ukai Dam, constructed across the Tapi River, is the second largest reservoir in Gujarat after the Sardar Sarovar. It is also known as Vallabh Sagar. Constructed in 1972, the dam is meant for irrigation, power generation and flood control. Having a catchment area of about 62,255 km2 and a water spread of about 52,000 hectares, its capacity is almost same as that of the Bhakra Nangal Dam. The site is located 94 km from Surat.
.
On June 3, 2019, the water level in the dam was 275.65 feet, while in 2018, at the end of monsoon season, the water level in the dam was 319.07 feet.” Water from Ukai dam is supplied for irrigation, drinking and industry purposes in Surat, Ankleshwar, Tapi, Navsari and Valsad districts.
.
The flood would break through its banks, causing damage to towns near the river. 100 km to the east of the dam is Surat, which is India's 8th largest city. The flood might be able to reach that city, and if it does, the 4.5 million people who live there will be in danger.
