    What   is   the   reason   behind Krishna-Godavari water dispute? Name the multi-purpose river valley project constructed on River Krishna.

    Answer:

      The Krishna-Godavari dispute is due to the objections raised by Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh governments. It is regarding the diversion of more water at Koyna river, a tributary of Krishna river for a multi-purpose project. This project reduces down-stream flow of river Krishna in Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh which leads to adverse consequences for agriculture and industry. The multi-purpose river valley project on Krishna river is Nagarjuna Sagar Dam. It is one of the earliest multipurpose project in India which is constructed in the border of Guntur and Nalgonda districts of Andhra Pradesh.                                                                                                                                                                                                 (1)
