Bagur Navile Water Tunnel | Longest water tunnel in India | Hassan Tourism | Karnataka Tourism

Bagur Navile Water Tunnel is the Longest water tunnel in India part of Hassan Tourism, Channarayapatna Tourism, Karnataka Tourism.
Bagur Navile Tunnel is the longest water tunnel in India, an engineering marvel, constructed between 1979 and 1990 is located between Bagur ( ಬಾಗುರ್ ) and Navile village of Channarayapatna taluk of Hassan district, Karnataka. The water tunnel created between Bagur and Navile in Chennarayapattana taluk of Hassan district is the second longest water tunnel in Asia
The idea of constructing a tunnel was mooted during the tenure of the late D. Devaraj Urs. However, the irrigation expert Balekundri opposed it. Even Devaraj Urs is said to have warned during the foundation stone laying ceremony that constructing the tunnel below 200 ft may lead to depletion of the groundwater table. What was feared came true after the implementation of the project.
Work on the tunnel went on for 15 years, and by 1991, the adverse effects became apparent.The 9.76 km-long and 5.4 metre-wide tunnel runs between Bagur and Navile from A.G. Ramachandra Rao Canal of the Hemavathy project.Water is supplied from Hemavathy basin to Shimshabasin using this tunnel.
Length of the tunnel is 9.7 km, 75 to 200feet Deep under the ground. Water is supplied from Hemavathy basin to Shimshabasin using this tunnel. With an intention to supply 25 TMC water to Tumkur from the Hemavati dam, a channel was created in 1979 from Gorur to Bagur in Chennarayapattana taluk covering a distance of 50 km. However, a 10 km stretch in the midway was elevated and therefore a plan was chalked out to create a tunnel from Bagur to Navile to facilitate the supply of water. This tunnel has been dug to a depth of 150 ft. under the ground, even as the depth is about 300 ft. at some locations. The tunnel runs for about 10 km from Bagur and opens near Navile village. As a result of creating this tunnel, seepage of groundwater into the tunnel, borewells in the area had gone dry but several other drought-stricken villages got water.
All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) organised the farmers of many affected villages and launched a prolonged massive agitation in 1996 against the state. This came to be popularly known as the BAGUR-NAVILE AGITATION in the country, considered by some eminent social scientists as one of the most important peasant movements in post-independent India.
Farmers in over 40 villages of Bagur hobli in Channarayapatna taluk were facing problems as lift irrigation schemes proposed to help the affected farmers were not completed owing to non-availability of funds.
The Department took up two compensatory lift-irrigation schemes to irrigate the Bagur-Navile cluster of villages. But they were completed at an extraordinary delay of almost two decades.

Thank you Sir, very nice video. i watched this video 2 times, you show unkown places which is not seen or heard by many people like me. Appreciate all the officials who are working and looking after this project. But was sad to hear when he said why Good is not happening to us. They all look very co-operative and gave lot of information and shared their problems as well. God bless all our farmers and Let our River Kaveri's blessings be upon all of us. she is the life line and source of our living.

Thank you for the feedback and support 🙏🙏🙏

[@p.m.dayanandrao9956]

Firstly, I am sorry that this could be a long comment & I apologize for the same. I have really liked the videos not because there are less videos on the travel section but because you take efforts for some minute details in your videos to show us & the truth. Also, l see that you take great interest in showcasing river systems especially dams in your videos. That said, I would really like the information that your trying to project in your videos, especially on the dam systems, through a drone camera with your comments, will be really wonderful. It is because I see you try to show us the whole structure, as it is in the current time, and also give us a bird's-eye view perspective explaining from where exactly & how the river water is flowing & entering the dam area, the appropriate area the water is getting dammed and how exactly (from where it is getting released) the water flows from the dammed area. When commenting this, I clearly understand the monetary aspect and the personal efforts it takes even for the current videos that you are trying to show us. But believe me, if this sort of extra efforts are take now, maybe in coming future or even in the life time of your future too, these informations on different dam structures that you cover in your videos from the water getting dammed & back again into the rivers system and how exactly different dam structures have been working would help many commoners to revere the water they are getting easily accessed to, and not to mention even the civil engineers to study on structures & how to better implement it in the future will be enormous. I too agree that these efforts & informations may not pay off well in your in your lifetime but it is always one's life efforts that yields results which is why there is family structure in our society and in time & again proved that is not always true as humans believe. Also, I am going to put out this same comment on different videos of yours that you have released through your previous video logs so that it is clearly visible to you even if you care or not... Finally, thanking you if you have gone through this comment carefully and jai Karnataka...
