Rangiayaana Durga Project

Distance from Bengalooru : 260 kms.

How to reach : On the way to Bellary via Hiruyur,chelkere, Hangal. Take left at Hangal continue till 2 km ,Take again left turn and move 3.5 km to reach RD Project.Road is good till HANGAL. Last 6 km stretch is very Narrow and bumpy, thorns are as strong as nails which is really a nightmare for tires.but still My NEW WAGON R VXi with TUBELESS TIRES .......... made it without any complaints :) 

 This Trip was something special to me.I drove my own " BLUE EYED BOY "  THE  NEW MARUTI WAGON R After a Hectic schedule at office came back home by around 10 pm.Accompanied by my Mom and Dad Left to my Native place "CHIKKERAHALLY" at 10.40 pm for the First Long Drive in my " BLUE EYED BOY". some kind of happiness,sort of satisfaction,more of excitement bit of emotions made my journey simply UNFORGETTABLE.

Also Visited RANGIAH DURGA project which is near to my native place of course with my cousins.I call it as   "BAYALU SEEME ya GANGE"  coz it just remembered me the importance of  OASIS in DESERT.

  

Let me share what exactly you mean by Bayaluseeme  It's "plain ground" or "open ground" as it gives an unobstructed view of the neighboring locality’s .the area lying to the east of MALNAD, a region of Karnataka state. The area is largely open plain, with few hillocks and districts include Gadag, Haveri, Bijapur, Bagalkot, Gulbarga, Raichur, Koppal, Bellary, Chitradurga,Tumkur which are mainly depend on KRISHNA ,BHIMA and TUNGABHADRA rivers. Normal Temperature would be around 39 to 49 degree Celsius.Imagine temperature at summer ...!!!! I hope now one can analyze why my blog name is bayaluseeme ya gange.ಬಯಲು ಸೀಮೆಯ ಗಂಗೆ

 Two Major Dams TUNGA BHADRA  at Hospete and  KRISHNA at ALMATTI constructed to fulfill the thirst of north Karnataka.small reservoir like vanivilasa sagara in chitradurga district and Karayanpur reserviour in bijapur district which are supporting equally. Adding to it RANGIAYANA DURGA dam which has been constructed newly and open for the use.

It has been constructed across the river HAGARI.  Later it splits it's route emerging as Dodda Hagari and Sanna Hagari. It is also known as VEDAVATHI river in Karnataka, Two rivers VEDHA and AVATHI rises from the eastern part of sahyadri range and flows through the states of Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. Vanivilasa Sagara has been constructed across the river Vedavathi couple of years back.

Sanna Hagari which flows  through Rangiayana durga,Chikerahally,Nagsamudra and enters into Andra Pradesh. Am proud to say my native CHIKERAHALLY which is on the bank of river HAGARI. Dodda Hagari flows thro kotur,sirguppa,sindhanur ,manvi thro small stream/low level channel .This would really help in reducing the scarcity of water to 40%.Finally It joins Tunga Bhadra near MANTRALAYA.

 Karnataka is land of natural resources, government is not taking necessary steps to utilize the resources. Many rivers in North Karnataka namely MANJRA,KANJARA ,KAGNA ,BARI ,MULLAMDRI ,BANITHORA ,BENNI HALLA,DHARMA,VARADA ,MALLAPRABHA,GHATAPRBHA, KALI. which are not utilized properly .Its a pity that most of us  don’t even know these names. Proper utilization of these rivers can lighten up many lives.

  

More of such Reservoir,check dams, Channels are needed.....!!!!!  

Save Nature...!!!!
