In this video, I talk about World's Longest dam or World's Longest Earthened Dam: The Hirakud Dam, built on the Mahanadi River in the Sambalpur district of Odisha.
Proposed by engineer M. Visvesvaraya. It is the longest earthen dam in the world, with a total length of 25.8km and a center distance of 4.8km. Behind the dam, the Hirakud reservoir spreads over 743sq km. The dam operates through 64 sluice gates.
Know more about The Hirakud Dam from the video.
