The correct answer is (d) Karnataka.
The Sivasamudram hydroelectricity project is located on the Kaveri River in Karnataka, India. It is the largest hydroelectric project in Karnataka and the second largest in India. The project was commissioned in 1987 and has a capacity of 420 MW.
The project consists of a dam, a power station, and a canal. The dam is located on the Kaveri River, about 100 km from the city of Bangalore. The power station is located at the foot of the dam and has four turbines. The canal is used to transport water from the dam to the power station.
The Sivasamudram hydroelectricity project has been controversial since its inception. The project has been opposed by environmental groups, who argue that it will damage the environment. The project has also been opposed by farmers, who argue that it will reduce the water flow in the Kaveri River.
