Question

Check dams are built along seasonal flooded gullies for water harvesting.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Nither
• D. Either

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

A check dam is a small dam which may be temporarily or permanently constructed across a gully, a draining ditch or channel so as to slow down the speed of concentrated flows. These dams are made for harvesting water and preserving natural water of rain. Hence, these dams are made in seasonal times generally when there is heavy rainfall. The stored water then can be used for various purposes.

Hence, the statement given in the question is correct.

So, the correct answer is 'True'.
