On one end of the dam, there is a Fisheries Training Center located. Also some 3 km away a temple dedicated to Purushothama Tirtha Gavi has situated nearby the Kanava Reservoir.

You can see a fisheries training and research center at another side of the Kanva Reservoir, The main intention was to make the villagers self-sustaining by way of fish farming.
