In this Revering Island formed by the Caver, the river branches off and cascades from a great height to form two segmented waterfalls, one the wider Brachium and the other a kilometer away allied Significance. Significance again has two views one from the drag(mosque) side and the other from the viewing gallery side. From the view gallery side you can view Sais's First Hydroelectric power station cradled in the valley below which powered Koala Gold fields in 1902 and Bangles in 1905, thus making it the first city in Asia to get electrified.Currently there is no access to the station deep down in the valley but as school students when we went on an excursion, we were taken into the power station deep into the valley by a cabled wagon. No student of Kananga can escape a lesson on this place in their Kananga text.
Emerald green fields of payday,sugarcane and vegetables, drifting mists over the faraway mountains, swaying palms, A tree house( perhaps a watch tower for the payday fields), quaint village houses with terracotta tiles, glistening leaves of trees washed by the rains, network of water channels, an old bridge like an ancient relic with past padding(fungal) walls which looked steady and sturdy, Giggle dam, Midrange(post coming up) are all the visual treats.Supernumerary Falls Supernumerary (Kananga: beddedВ»4) is a small town in the Amanda District of the here the boundary to the Cameraman's District, and is the location of one of the iris Hydro-electric Power stations in Asia, which was set up in the year 1902. The Supernumerary Falls is on the Xavier River after the river has wound its way through the rocks and ravines of the Decca Plateau and drops off to form waterfalls. The island town of Supernumerary divides the river into twin waterfalls. This creates the fourth largest island in the rivers course.
A group of ancient temples are located here and there likely was a village. This is a segmented waterfall.Segmented waterfalls occur where the water flow is broken into two or more channels before dropping over a cliff, resulting in multiple side by side waterfalls. It has an average width of 305 meters, a height of 98 m, and an average volume of 934 cubic meters / sec.
The maximum recorded volume is 18,887 cubic meters / sec. It is a perennial waterfall. The time of best flow are the monsoon season of July to October. A common misconception about these waterfalls are that the left segment is called Significance and the right segment is called Branchlike. In reality the Branchlike falls are a few kilometers to the south-west of the Significance falls .This is due to the Xavier river itself splitting a few kilometers to the south into western and eastern branches .
The western branch results in the twin waterfalls of Significance, whereas the eastern branch results in the Branchlike falls. The Significance waterfalls are best viewed from the Supernumerary watch tower. Most of the pictures showing the twin waterfalls are taken from that location. There is another approach to the Significance falls from the Drag Hazard Marine Gab (Imam All) [5].
Despite warnings being posted, people climb down the rocks and attempt to view the waterfalls from behind/top, resulting in many fatal accidents. It is 139 km from the city of Bangles.Adventurous people can trek down but there is a warning road which reads how a SIS engineer Kappa got killed in the water. The water force here is so powerful like an ocean that this place is called 'Shiva samara'(ocean of Shiva). The force of the Shims water was harnessed into hydroelectric power in 1902.
Thus earning the erstwhile Moser state the glorious position of establishing the First major hydro-electric station as early as 1902 for commercial operation. This art was still at infancy, even in the advanced countries. The longest transmission line, with highest voltage in the world was constructed to meet the power needs of mining operations at Koala Gold fields.
