TN opens Mettur dam gates to supply irrigation water for 45 days
On Tuesday, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay opened the Mettur dam gates to discharge water for farming, during an ongoing conflict with Karnataka regarding the sharing of Cauvery river water. The water discharge is scheduled to last for 45 days, beginning on September 1. This development follows the Supreme Court postponing the Cauvery water dispute hearing to September 15, after Tamil Nadu requested that Karnataka resolve its pending water release deficit.
