The Krishna Raja Sagara Dam (KRS Dam) is built across which river
Answer: D
The KRS Dam is built across the Kaveri.
The Krishna Raja Sagara dam stands on the Kaveri (Cauvery) near Mandya, close to Mysuru in Karnataka. It was designed under the engineer Sir M. Visvesvaraya and is known for the Brindavan Gardens below it. It supplies irrigation and drinking water to Mysuru and Bengaluru.
The name comes from the Maharaja Krishnaraja Wadiyar IV, not from the Krishna river, which is the trap. The Godavari and Mahanadi are other peninsular rivers, further north.
