Описание к видео Watch: Gates of Jayakwadi dam opened as heavy rains lash catchment area in Maharashtra's Aurangabad

All 27 gates of Jayakwadi dam have been opened, following heavy rainfall in catchment areas in Maharashtra's Aurangabad district. The executive engineer of dam Rajendra Kale said that water discharge from Jayakwadi dam has reached 94,320 cusecs (cubic foot per second) and the revenue department has been put on alert along with people living on banks of Godavari river. Heavy rains lashed the catchment of the dam located on Godavari River in Aurangabad on September 17, causing the water levels to rise. Kale said, 'Water level in Jayakwadi dam has reached 99.44 per cent of its capacity. Of the 27 gates, we had initially opened 18 till September 17 night. However, we had to operate the remaining nine gates post-midnight.'
