Krishna water for Chennai within this week: WRD sources


Chennai:
The city is likely to get 300 cusecs of Krishna Water within this week, according to Water Resources Department.

The water was expected to be released on Thursday after the temporary repair works by Andhra Pradesh irrigation department in Uppalamadagu canal near Kalalahasti in Andhra Pradesh got over. However, it is expected to be released within this week after getting the nod from Andhra Pradesh government, according to Water Resources Department.

The water supply from Kandleru reservoir was suspended following the repair works being undertaken on the canal. As per an interstate agreement reached in 1976, Tamil Nadu is eligible for 15tmcft (thousand million cubic feet) of water between April and June under the Telugu Ganga project. Currently, the city’s reservoirs are drying up and the state has prepared a contingency plan for supply of water in the city.
