Oldest Dam in Karnataka 900 years old Madhavmantri Dam at Talakadu, Mysore tourism Karnataka tourism

Oldest Dam in Karnataka 900 years old Madhavmantri Dam at Talakadu, Mysore tourism Karnataka tourism. The Madhava Mantri Dam built across river Cauvery near Talakadu in Tirumakudlu Narasipur (T. Narasipur) of Mysore district, Karnataka.
A few years back, a portion of the Madhava Mantri Dam collapsed and had destroyed crops grown in thousands of acres near Talakad. As per the new plan, a cement concrete dam will be built with a total length of 527 metres. The old structure will be pulled down and according to Talakad villagers, once the new dam comes up, T. Narasipur will lose a piece of history.
Though there is a dispute regarding the exact date of the Madhava Mantri Dam at Talakad (according to government engineers, it was built in the year 1140 AD), records say that it was built in 14th century AD by Madhava Mantri, an eminent Minister and Viceroy in the Vijayanagar period.
The structure has been built by mud and earthwork and offers a wonderful topography for River Cauvery to create a miniature Falls over it. The dam, which is used for irrigation purpose, doubles as a picnic spot during monsoon. The Madhava Mantri dam is located at Hemmige, some four kilometres from Talakadu. Normally, a portion of the dam breaches whenever there is a major release of water from the Krishna Raja Sagar (KRS) Dam in Mandya.
Legends say that the Madhava Mantri Dam was built by the Vijayanagar kings. Talakadu and all of Mysuru and South Karnataka were once part of the famed Vijayanagar Empire and Bukka was the ruling Emperor. One of his many Ministers was Madhava Mantri.
A signboard on the structure says that the dam was built in 1140 AD making it the second oldest dam next only to the Grand Anicut, built by Chola King Karikalan during the first century, on the Cauvery further downstream at Tiruchirapalli in Tamil Nadu.
Madhava Mantri was a Brahmin and was as apt at debates and war. Bukka deputed him to conquer Goa from the Bahamani kings. Madhava Mantri seized Goa and built a Gommateshwara Temple. Bukka then ordered Madhava Mantri to look after the Mysore province. Madhava Mantri then decided to build a dam across the Cauvery a little upstream Talakadu. He did so as he wanted to divert the water for irrigation purposes.The sand hills used to advance upon the town at the rate of 9 or 10 feet a year, principally during the south-west monsoon and as they pressed it close on three sides. The inhabitants of Talkād were constantly forced to abandon their houses and retreat further inland. The town, however, is increasing in population, owing to the rich wet cultivation in the neighbourhood, derived from the Mādhavamantri anicut and channel. More than thirty temples, it is stated, are beneath the sand, but the Kírti Nārāyana temlpe has been successfully excavated. The most imposing temple left uncovered by the sand is that of vydyanatheshwara temple.
Talakadu is a desert-like town on the left bank of the Kaveri river 45 km from Mysore and 133 km from Bangalore in Karnataka, India. It once had over 30 temples, most of which now lay buried in sand. It is a popular pilgrimage site for Hindus.Other near by places of interest for mysore tourists are the temples of Talakadu, the Pathaleshwara, Maruleshwara, Arkeshwara, Vaidyanatheshwara and Mallikarjuna temples, the five Lingas believed to represent the five faces of Shiva, form the Pancha pathi and have become famous.Talakadu is one of the Pancha Narayana Kshetrams where the Keerthi Narayana temple was established and the presiding Deity in this temple is Keerthi Narayana.

The entry point is 12 km from Channarayapatna town in the Hassan district of Karnataka. It is a nice quiet place which can be a quick stopover for the tourists visiting other famous destinations nearby in Hassan.
When the water is supplied through the tunnel it’s a treat to watch. The sound of the gush of water makes one forget everything else. When the water is stopped one can explore the inside of this pitch black tunnel which feels like exploring a cave.

The construction of the tunnel where helped the farmers of Tumkur and Mandya districts, nothing has changed in the lives of farmers affected by the tunnel project in Hassan district. Farmers in over 40 villages of Bagur-Navile region in Channarayapatna taluk, of Hassan district were the tunnel is located are facing problems even today. The lift irrigation schemes proposed to help the affected farmers have not been completed owing to non-availability of funds. Due to seepage of groundwater into the tunnel borewells in the area have gone dry, resulting in declining coconut yields and arable land.
Irrigation experts now contemplate, that there could have been a better way to supply the water. Nevertheless, the tunnel is still an engineering marvel and a tourist attraction.
