Dimna Lake, Jamshedpur’s iconic reservoir and lifeline, was among 25 lakes across the country after which spectator galleries were named during the 80th Independence Day celebrations at Delhi’s Red Fort.
About Dimna Lake:
It is an artificial lake located in the steel city of Jamshedpur in Jharkhand.
It is located in the foothills of the Dalma mountain range.
Construction:
Constructed under the Dimna Nala Water Supply Scheme by Tata Steel, the reservoir was built to meet the future water needs of a rapidly expanding industrial city.
Work on the project began in 1940 and was completed in 1944, with water from the lake supplied to Jamshedpur for the first time on April 17, 1944.
The lake was created by damming the Subarnarekha River.
This lake is near the Dalma Wildlife Sanctuary, which is home to several species of deer and other animals like the sloth bear and the Indian wolf.
The lake has facilities for water sports like jet skiing, rowing, and water scooting.
