Pavana Dam

The Pune district administration on Tuesday imposed prohibitory orders at several popular picnic spots, including Bhushi Dam and the Pavana Dam region in Maval tehsil, effective from July 2 to 31 to ensure tourist safety during the monsoon season.

The netting of a dead carnivorous fish native to North America in Pavana Dam near Pune has put the state Fisheries department on alert mode as its presence could adversely affect the bio-diversity of the water body.

The Bombay High Court has denied permission to the Maharashtra government from renewing an agreement that allowed the Maharashtra Cricket Association to use water from the Pavana Dam to prepare the stadium and pitch for cricket matches, including the Indian Premier League or IPL.
