  • The Mukutmanipur Dam is a dam in Khatra subdivision of Bankura district in the state of West Bengal, India. The Kangsabati River (also variously known as the Kasai and Cossye) rises from the Chota Nagpur Plateau in West Bengal, and passes through the districts of Purulia, Bankura and Paschim Medinipur district in West Bengal before draining in the Bay of Bengal, 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) from Mukutmonipur. It is the second longest earthen dam in India (11.27 kms), next only to Sri Ram Sagar Project (SRSP) Telangana, with a gross storage capacity of 1.04 cubic kms (36.73 tmcft). It is the only dam that has been designated as 'Dam of national importance' from West Bengal by Central Water Commission of Government of India. The road over the dam is 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) in length. In the middle, there is a small hillock called Paresnath hill where several statues of Jain and Hindu deities are kept in the open air. These statues were recovered during digging while the dam was built. There is another Jain statue lying at the bottom of the Pareshnath hill. (en)
