She also congratulated DEO Satpal Kaushik for the school's 100% pass rate and expressed hope that the students would bring further glory by topping the district next year.

The ZP is going to make some funds available, and the funds will be raised through corporate social responsibility as well. Once the revamping of the ZP schools is done through this programme, a similar school development model will be implemented across the state."

Basavasagar dam reaches full capacity; all gates opened
Kalaburagi: The Basavasagar reservoir, located in Narayanpur village in Yadgir district, reached full capacity in June, for the first time in its 15-year existence. Authorities opened all 25 gates, releasing 75,015 cusecs of water into the Krishna River, while issuing warning to people residing downstream of the dam. During March and April, farmers near the command areas of Narayanpur left and right bank canals struggled to protect their rabi crops. The situation evolved into a political controversy, with parties engaging in accusations. Despite the reservoir filling up over two months, the accumulated water necessitated release into the Krishna River. The reservoir's storage surpassed 80%, holding 28.2 TMC of water against its full capacity of 33 TMC. By June 13, it reached 84.7% capacity. Initially, two gates released 12,600 cusecs of water. On June 14, authorities increased the discharge by opening seven gates, releasing 29,220 cusecs of water. Later that day, 52,704 cusecs of water were discharged through 14 gates. Although the outflow decreased temporarily, by June 18 evening, 51,475 cusecs of water were released through 17 gates. From June 19 morning, 75,015 cusecs of water were discharged into the Krishna River through 25 gates. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed!

Favourable pre-monsoon rains also led to the reservoir filling up, necessitating the opening of 25 gates. The authorities indicated that discharge rates would be adjusted systematically, either upwards or downwards, based on the volume of water flowing into the reservoir. According to Vijay Arali, AE, Basavasagar reservoir, Narayanpur, approximately 10 TMC of water was released into the river so far.
