At a distance of 53 km from Nizamabad Bus Station, 20 km from Nirmal Bus Station and 207 km from Hyderabad, The Sriram Sagar Project also known as the Pochampadu Project is located in Nizamabad district of Telangana. It is one of the largest irrigation projects in Telangana.

Built on Godavari River, foundation of the dam was laid on 26th July 1963 by the late Jawaharlal Nehru. Sriram Sagar serves irrigation needs in Karimnagar, Warangal, Adilabad, Nalgonda, and Khammam districts. It also provides drinking water to Warangal city. There is a hydroelectric plant working at the dam site with 4 turbines each with 9 MW capacity.

The dam's capacity is 75 billion cubic feet and it has 42 floodgates. It also includes Kakatiya Canal covering 284 km, Laxmi Canal, Saraswati Canal and Flood flow canal. Most of the catchment area upstream of this dam is located in Maharashtra. The project proposal was first investigated by erstwhile Hyderabad state under Nizam rule to utilize 227 tmc of upper Godavari river water. The live storage capacity of Sriram Sagar dam is limited to 90 tmc to reduce submerging area in Maharashtra. As of August 2013, the project has an estimated capacity of 80.66 TMC.

This project offers a pollution free environment to holiday makers and is considered an excellent picnic spot. The department of tourism maintains an island near the dam, which is a retreat for migratory birds in all season. The dam also has an excellent garden nearby which also offers a boating facility in the picturesque waters of the massive reservoir. Sri Rama temple is also present which is located near the riverbank and one of the most attractive places in Godavari pushkaralu.
