The long long banks of the Nila face the great tragedy ever. The underground water-level has become alarmingly low and it goes further in depth. Most of the drinking water projects have now stopped working and lift irrigation schemes are on the verge of collapse. Two regulator -cum - bridges, one at Thrithala and the other at Ponani Chamravttom has emerged as two reservoirs, helping the water supply schemes in adjacent areas. But the immediate neighbourhoods of these two small dams still face shortage of even drinking water.
The biodiversity in the Nila also faces a big hit as natural flowing towards down has been cut off many times, due to lack of water and new small dams.
In Kudallur, bore wells are the recent trends. Though one has to seek official permission to dig bore wells, nobody bothers about that. It would be amazing to see that in a small Panchayath ward of Kudallur, there exist 20 bore wells; some of them are not really needed at all.
The River Management Fund (RMF) is a corpus fund to be used for the protection of rivers. But it still remains unspent.
Sand excavations and unscientific water projects caused this pathetic state.Things are getting worse than ever. Now wait for the tragedy inevitable.
