Construction of Precast Aqueduct for Yettinahole Project

Madhava, Chief Engineer(R)

The Kolar and Chikkaballapur districts in eastern Karnataka face recurring water scarcity exacerbated by depleted groundwater and contamination from salts like Fluoride and Nitrate. To address this, Karnataka plans to divert excess flood waters during monsoon from Yettinahole, Kadumanehole, Kerihole, and Hongadahalla streams to seven districts, including Hassan, Chikkamagalur, Tumakuru, Chikkaballapur, Kolar, Raman- agara, and Bengaluru Rural, ensuring a sustainable water supply for drinking.
