Adits at the Shrinagar Dam construction site on the Alaknanda River (India)

I believe that those are intake adits that will bring the water to the power house on the other end of the tunnels.

This is one of the 14 operational or under construction hydro power projects on the Alaknanda river, which is one of the headstreams of the Ganges river.
