A thread on Karnataka's Multi arch check dams just doing their job. We've built nearly 5000+ such dams in the last 5 years under MGNREGA. #MGNREGA 
The check dam with arches is in best form when there is water trying to build pressure from behind. #mgnrega
On plain lands, reservoirs are created and bunds built to store rain water. #mgnrega
The raised corner arches prevent erosion and eddies on the sides.
A movie buff would call the arches Amar,Akbar, Anthony.
A bridge across a dam. Engineers 👍

When I see rain falling in the background and a check dam catching all its water, it feels like a time lapsed mirror image.
