Though the rainfall has stopped since last night, the Damodar Valley Reservoir Regulatory Committee (DVRRC), the competent authority for releasing water from dams of River Damodar has released about 1.70 lakh cusecs of water from its Panchet and Maithon Dams.

DVC water release lesser than yesterday

Despite no or minimal rainfall in the six sub-basins of Damodar, the Damodar Valley Corporation has still released water today from its Maithon and Panchet dams.

Rush of rainwater in dams leads DVC to intensify discharge

Inflow of water to the upper reservoirs caused by the unrelenting rain eventually has forced the Damodar Valley Corporation to intensify the discharges of its prime feeder dams, Panchet and Maithon, resulting in the Durgapur barrage to scale up rate of outflow today.
