Parambikulam-Aliyar Project
The Parambikulam-Aliyar Project is a multi-purpose water resource project located in the Western Ghats of India. It primarily aims to provide irrigation, hydroelectric power generation, and flood control for the surrounding regions. The project utilizes the waters of the Parambikulam River and the Aliyar River, creating a network of reservoirs and canals to support agricultural activities.
The project is a collaboration between the states of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. It includes several dams, such as the Parambikulam Dam and the Aliyar Dam, which play crucial roles in water management. The project not only enhances agricultural productivity but also contributes to the local economy through power generation.
