A dam is a multi-storied structure that stores excess water for laterb use.

• build large dams in order to:

1 Store large quantity of water for irrigationand electricity generation.

2 Transfer water to different locations in adequate quantities.

3 Allow equitable distribution of water because people near the source grow water intensive crops like sugar crane and rice while people farther down stream do not get any water.

• Construction of large dams causes:

1 Social problem of displacement of large number of peasants and tribals,without rehabilitation and adequate compensation.

2 Economic problem of expenditure of huge amounts of public money without the generation of proportionate benefits.

3 Environmental problems of deforestationand loss of bio diversity.
