Lower Manair Dam
A tributary of the Godavari River, the Manair River is covered by the Lower Manair Dam (LMD). The dam's construction began in 1974 and was completed in 1985. The reservoir has a 24 TMC gross storage capacity. Additionally, it provides drinking water to the towns of Karimnagar and Warangal.
The Lower Manair Dam is 4.5 kilometres from the Karimnagar Bus Stand in the town of Alugunur, which is near Karimnagar. In Karimnagar, the Lower Manair Dam is a popular tourist destination. There are 20 floodgates on the dam.
During monsoon season, travellers are mesmerized by the flowing water from the floodgates. People gather from the surrounding communities to witness this breathtaking scene.
