It is also known as Pampa Sagar. The main architect of the dam was Dr. Thirumala Iyengar, an engineer from Madras. There is a dispute between Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka for the water of Tungabhadra reservoir. The endemic famine region of Rayalseema, comprising the districts of Bellary, Anantapur, Kurnool and Kadapa attracted the attention of the British Engineers as early as 1860. To relieve the intensity of famine in these districts, proposals were made in 1860 to utilize the waters of Tungabhadra through a storage reservoir and a system of canals to provide irrigation for the lands.
