Solution	Commissioned in 1955, the Massanjore Dam, also known as the Canada Dam, spans across the Mayurakshi River. Notably, it was officially inaugurated by Lester B. Pearson, the Foreign Minister of Canada at the time. Regrettably, the Massanjore Dam, situated near Dumka in the state of Jharkhand (formerly Bihar), was not granted the provision for flood reserve, leading to its vulnerability in managing floodwaters effectively.
