Multipurpose river valley project are basically designed for the development of irrigation for agriculture and electricity through the construction of dams. Initially, dams were built only for storing rain water to prevent flooding but now it became multipurpose.

River valley projects are those that serve various purposes. These are also called multipurpose projects.
These help in inland navigation.
Hydro power can be generated from the potential energy of the reservoir.
Inland fisheries can be carried out. Fish breeding can be profitably done.
These too help in flood control as its gates are opened when water reaches a particular level. Except from the fact that only these are the cause behind flooding when the gates are opened at once.
Water from these reservoirs through canals is sent to the fields for agricultural purposes.
