Atleast 225 mcft water from the Nandurmadhmeshwar dam near here was flown away after a hole developed in it, official sources said on Monday.

The 100-year-old dam, which was renovated by the state government last year, developed a hole yesterday resulting in water-logging in nearby fields, causing threat of water shortage in Marathwada, they said.

Repair work is on, sources added.
