(a) Guru Gobind Sagar Lake
Explanation:
Guru Gobind Sagar Lake is a man-made reservoir located in the Bilaspur District in the state of Himachal Pradesh, India. The reservoir is on the river Sutlej and is named in honour of the Sikh Guru. It was formed by the Bhakra Dam, which is one of the world's highest gravity dams. It rises nearly 225.5 m above its lowest foundations. It was constructed by Harvey Slocum, an American dam builder, from 1955 to 1962. To maintain the level of water, the flow of River Beas was channelized to the Guru Gobind Sagar lake through the Beas-Sutlej link, which was accomplished in 1976.
