Chennai, June 08 (ANI): Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy, while discussing the Mullaperiyar Dam issue on Sunday said that he is not averse to giving water to Tamil Nadu but that his only concern is safety of people of Kerala.
The Mullaperiyar Dam site is in Kerala, but the reservoir mainly serves Tamil Nadu. Kerala wanted the structure to be demolished, while Tamil Nadu had fiercely opposed the move.
Kerala advocated for the construction of a new dam to banish prevailing fears of an impending disaster in the event of the dam’s collapse.
