Jurala Dam, constructed on the river Krishna, is situated in Mahbubnagar district of Telangana, India. The full name of the dam is Priyadarshini Jurala Project, and it is located around 10 kilometers from Kuravapur, Mahbubnagar. It was inaugurated in 1995 and has since been a source of irrigation water for over 2,00,000 acres of land in the region. This hydroelectric project also aids in power generation and contributes to the local grid. The Jurala Dam presents a blend of natural beauty and human ingenuity, making it a popular spot for picnics and family outings. Alongside the dam, the site includes a Deer Park and a project to augment fish breeding, enhancing the ecological benefits of the region.
