Thus, when dam height was increased from 100 m to 110.63 m, State of Gujarat claimed that this will lead to:
Ø Availability of 3.5 Million Acre Feet (MAF) water for Gujarat and Rajasthan
Ø Additional irrigation to 2.18 to 5 lakh hectares.
Ø Increase in storage capacity from 2600 Million Cubic meters (MCM) to 3700 MCM.
