Even with "mammoth" efforts to rejuvenate Chharwa and other water supply reservoirs in Jharkhand, in the parched-dry Hazaribagh summer it often reaches the dying stage, only to be revived by the onset of the monsoons.[1][2] As per the Wetlands International Asian Waterbirds Census 2016, there were 1,462 water birds in Chharwa Dam.[3] Chharwa Dam is home to various vulture species, including the largest and the smallest vultures, the Himalayan griffon vulture and the Egyptian vulture respectively. Critically Endangered species like the Indian Vulture and White Rumped Vulture are also found here.[4] DemographicsAccording to the 2011 Census of India, Chharwa had a total population of 843, of which 449 (53%) were males and 394 (47%) were females. Population in the age range 0–6 years was 135. The total number of literate persons in Chharwa was 521 (73.59% of the population over 6 years).[5] TransportThe Hazaribagh-Katkamsandi Road passes over a part of/ near the Chharwa Dam.
