Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B

Explanation

The Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project (KLIP) is a massive multi-purpose irrigation project located on the Godavari River in Kaleshwaram, Telangana. It is recognized as one of the world's largest multi-stage lift irrigation projects. The project is strategically built at the confluence of the Pranhita and Godavari rivers, where the water flow is significant. Its primary objectives include providing irrigation to approximately 45 lakh acres of land, supplying drinking water to several districts including the Hyderabad metropolitan area, and catering to industrial needs. By lifting water from the Godavari to higher elevations, the project addresses the water scarcity in the semi-arid regions of Telangana.
