Does Tamil Nadu not know the poor state the Mullaperiyar dam is in? If Kerala is not against supplying water to Tamil Nadu in future, why are Tamil politicians opposing the construction of a new dam? Political leaderships in both the states have failed miserably in settling the issue without drawing the people of Kerala out on the streets. It is not easy to construct a new dam to replace the old one that will start serving its purpose overnight. What is needed is to keep the water level of the existing dam as low as possible.
