Summary:
"It is a precautionary move at the Anjunem dam. There is no threat of flooding right now," the officials said.The dam's reservoirs are mainly rain fed through and reach full capacity during monsoons, they said.The situation is similar in the other dams in Goa as well but they have a natural discharge system for the excess water. The water will be released during the low tide, and levels at the Kashti and Valvanti rivers are set to rise. There are still three metres left for the dam to reach its safety mark. We have already directed villagers in the nearby areas to avoid going to the riverside to wash clothes or for any other purpose for the next few days..
