Recent rainfall has led to a significant increase in water levels in the Narayanpur and Gursunagi Bridge-cum-Barrage locations near Yadgir. The Basavasagar Reservoir, a key source of water for the region, experienced a substantial outflow. This increased flow is contributing to elevated water levels within the reservoir and potentially impacting downstream areas. Officials are monitoring the situation closely and assessing potential risks associated with the water flow. The reservoir’s capacity is currently being evaluated to determine the extent of the impact on the surrounding waterways and potential for future adjustments.
