On which of the following rives is Idukki Hydroelectric Project built?

A.

Ganga 

B.

Periyar

C.

Tapti

D.

Kosi

Correct option is B

The correct answer is Periyar.

  • The Idukki Hydroelectric Project is built on the Periyar River in the Indian state of Kerala.
  • This project is one of the largest hydroelectric projects in India, with an installed capacity of 780 MW.
  • The project is renowned for the Idukki Dam, which is a double curvature arch dam and one of the highest of its kind in Asia.
  • The dam is built between two mountains, Kuravan and Kurathi, and it creates a reservoir with a capacity of 2,000 million cubic meters.

Information Booster:

  • Ganga: The Ganga River is in northern India, and the Idukki project is located in southern India, so it is not related.
  • Tapti: The Tapti River is located in central India, far from the Idukki Hydroelectric Project.
  • Kosi: The Kosi River is in northern India, and it is not connected to the Idukki project.
