The project has been named as &#8220;Bansagar&#8221; after Bana Bhatt, the renowned Sanskrit scholar of 7th century, who is believed to have hailed from this region in India. Bansagar Dam is located at Latitude 24-11-30 N and Longitude 81-17-15 E.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project was initially envisaged as &#8220;<strong>Dimba Project<\/strong>&#8221; in 1956 by Central Water Commission, New Delhi to be constructed on Sone River at the confluence of Sone and Banas River near Shikarganj town 30 km down the present site. Later it was shifted to the present site at Deolond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was an agreement in 1973 between the State Governments of Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar for the construction of the Dam, according to which States had to share the expenditure in the ratio of 2:1:1. The sharing of 4 maf water is also to be done by the states in the same ratio. The construction work was started in year 1978 at original approved cost of Rs. 91.31 crores. The latest estimated cost in 1998 was Rs. 1054.96 crores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The objective to build this dam was to enhance both&nbsp;<strong>irrigation<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>hydroelectric power generation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project has been named as &#8220;Bansagar&#8221; after the renowned Sanskrit scholar of 7th century &#8211; Bana Bhatt. Bansagar Dam co ordinates the Latitude of 24-11-30 N and Longitude 81-17-15 E.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary benefit of the Bansagar Dam is related to the irrigational purposes. The water sharing from Bansagar Dam is as under Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bansagar dam provides irrigation facility over an area of 2,490 km\u00b2 in Madhya Pradesh, 1,500 km\u00b2 and in Uttar Pradesh and 940 km\u00b2 in Bihar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bansagar Dam was dedicated to nation on 25 September 2006 by Atal Bihari Vajpayee, former Prime Minister of India. The foundation of ambitious Bansagar project was laid by Late Prime Minister&nbsp;<strong>Morarji Desai&nbsp;<\/strong>on 14 May 1978. The Bansagar Canal Project started in 1978 and completed in 2008. The Canal Systems, which are under construction to utilize water from the Bansagar Reservoir, shall be started shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Details of Dam:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Catchment area : 18648 km<sup>2<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dam height : 67 metre<br><br>Dam length : 1020 metre<br><br>Dam type : Masonry\/Earthen<br><br>Spillway capacity : 47742 m<sup>3<\/sup>\/s<br><br>Live storage : 5.41 km<sup>3<\/sup><br><br>Submergence area : 587.54 km<sup>3<\/sup><br><br>Population affected : 250000 persons (54686 families)<br><br>Villages submerged : 336<br><br>Year of start : 1978<br><br>Year of completion : 2006<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The water sharing from Bansagar Dam is as under:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Madhya Pradesh : 2,000,000 acre feet (2.5*109 m3)<br><br>Uttar Pradesh : 1,000,000 acre feet (1.2*109 m3)<br><br>Bihar : 1,000,000 acre feet (1.2*109 m3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bansagar will provide irrigation facility over an area of 2,490 km<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;in Madhya Pradesh, 1,500 km<sup>2<\/sup>; in Uttar Pradesh and 940 km<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;in Bihar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Power generation:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also provides power generation of 425 MW in Madhya Pradesh.The Land under submergence of Bansagar at Full Reservoir Level (F.R.L 341.64 m.) is 587.54 km<sup>2<\/sup>, out of which 40.73 km<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;is forest land, 175.90 km<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;revenue land 1.31 km<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;public land and 369.59 km<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;private land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Total 336 villages have come under submergence of Bansagar Reservoir out of which 79 villages are fully submerged and rest 257 villages are under partial submergence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bansagar dam About: Bansagar&nbsp;or&nbsp;Ban Sagar Dam&nbsp;is a multipurpose Rriver Valley Project on Son River situated in Ganga Basin in Madhya [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5944","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5944","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5944"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5944\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5946,"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5944\/revisions\/5946"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5944"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5944"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.holidaylandmark.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5944"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
