New reservoir to come up near Narmada dam [1]

Gandhinagar: A new reservoir downstream of the Narmada dam is now no more a distant dream. Besides serving as a major spot for water sports, the weir will also generate electricity.

The state government has awarded the work for building the weir in river Narmada at Garudeshwar, about 12 kilometres downstream of Narmada dam, to a Hyderabad-based party Rithwik Projects.
