Tragic Incidents
Dharmasagar used to be a tourist attraction for people living in neighborhood who are looking to spend weekend with their friends and families. It has also attracted many Trekkers from different locations who crave for an adventure. But since the day the lake has been made into a reservoir for Devadula Project, which draws huge amounts of water from River Godavari, it has become a hazardous zone for picnics and trekking. There are reports of around 17 accidental deaths in past 3 years of people who visited this place who were drowned or flushed away by the huge water currents due to intake of large volumes of water from Godavari river. It also made into news when 5 engineering students were drowned recently.
This zone is marked as a 'Hazardous Spot' and people were forbidden from swimming in the lake. The police have clearly stated that this is no longer a tourist spot and its sole purpose is to cater the drinking water needs of people of tri-cities and also serve as an aid to agriculture. There are reports of this lake being made into a Tourist destination in future once all the construction works related to Project Devadula and Mission Bhagiratha are completed.
