With delayed monsoon, the northern
region is parched for water and also
shut in darkness with frequent power
cuts. In Chennai, the Deputy Chief
Minister Stalin stated in the Assembly
that a water source needs to be found
to cater to 15 TMC water per year
for Chennaites.
The DCM mentioned that an advisor
would be appointed to execute the
water source project. Speaking on
the subject, Stalin said, “The
Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply
and Sewerage Board is taking efforts
to provide quality drinking water
to the residents of Chennai.”
Touching on the Hogenakkal drinking
water project, he stated that preliminary
work is on and the project would end
by December 2010. This will take care
of the water needs of Dharmapuri and
Krishnagiri districts.
