73-km flood carrier channel will be completed by October-end
The linking of Tamirabharani – Karumeniyar – Nambiyar, being executed on an outlay of ₹872.45 crore to take the surplus waters to the southern regions of Tirunelveli and Thoothukudi districts by digging a 73-km-long flood carrier channel, will be completed before the northeast monsoon, Assembly Speaker M. Appavu has said.
Speaking to reporters here on Friday after inspecting the fourth phase of the river-linking project at Ponnakudi, Perumal Nagar, Munanjipatti and a few more areas on Friday, he said the fourth phase of the project started in August last year and would be completed before the northeast monsoon (October-end). About 80% of the work, which was started in 2008 – 2009, had been completed.
