Large, medium and small water bodies called lakes/ reservoirs / impoundments constitute the major freshwater resources of Andhra Pradesh and these water bodies were formed by the construction of dams across small rivulets and streams for irrigation or as a source of drinking water of the region. Pocharam lake that is situated in Medak-Nizamabad Districts and Wyra lake in Khammam District of Andhra Pradesh in South India are presently the major sources of water in the regions.

Abstract


Large, medium and small water bodies called lakes/ reservoirs / impoundments constitute the major freshwater resources of Andhra Pradesh and these water bodies were formed by the construction of dams across small rivulets and streams for irrigation or as a source of drinking water of the region. Pocharam lake that is situated in Medak-Nizamabad Districts and Wyra lake in Khammam District of Andhra Pradesh in South India are presently the major sources of water in the regions.
