Mullaperiyar row: Reducing water in dam not necessary, says Supreme Court
- 12 years ago
The Supreme Court today said that there is no need for the water level in the Mullaperiyar Dam to be reduced from the current 136 feet mark to 120 feet. The Kerala government wanted the change because it alleges that leaks, tremors and the age of the 116-year-old dam make it vulnerable to collapse.
