One of the first problems with dams is the erosion of land. Dams hold back the sediment load normally found in a river flow, depriving the downstream of this. In order to make up for the sediments, the downstream water erodes its channels and banks. This lowering of the riverbed threatens vegetation and river wildlife.
Disadvantage of Multipurpose Project -
(1) It induces earthquakes.
(2) Population gets displaced.
(3) Aquatic life gets affected.
(4) Flow of underground water is also checked.
(5) River water gets diverted.
(6) Extensive forests submerged under water.
