Shivanasamudra in Karnataka (1902) was India's first hydroelectric project, built for the Kolar Gold Fields. It predates Bhakra-Nangal, Hirakud, and Sharavati projects. The Sharavati Project (Linganamakki Dam) came later in the 1960s. This is a significant milestone in Indian infrastructure history.
