Repairs to Jurala’s crest gates have been halted due to rising inflows, with work postponed until late 2025. Reduced capacity, traffic pressure, equipment failure, and lack of specialised repair support have added to the operational challenges at the project.
A crest gate at the Priyadarshini Jurala Project failed to open due to a snapped cable, even as Krishna river inflows touched 53,000 cusecs. Authorities rushed technical teams and resumed pending repair work to address operational issues on priority.
