Malaprabha Dam (navilu theerth)- A reservoir constructed near to Savadatti in Belgaum district of Karnataka State.
This DAM was engineered and architected by SG Balekundri. He was an irrigation expert of Karnataka State.
Nature has its own kind of contribution in building this DAM as there were series of hills helped to construct it easily with less expenditure. It has two water channels named Right bank canal and Left bank canal.
Large numbers of Peacocks were living here in this place. So the place name is still referred as Navilu theerth.

Actually I wanted to name this blog url as "Siphon" due to non-availability of it, I chose "Syphan". This is a spot name located near to Native village where the canal water flows between two hills in a closed pipe. This was possible by an excellent work of "SG Balekundri" who was an engineer and irrigation expert of Karnataka State.His excellence of work resulted in converting entire barren agricultural land of our village into irrigated land.This is the place where I enjoy and respect a lot.
