Mullaperiyar Dam is constructed over the headwaters of the Periyar River river
in Kerala, India. It is operated by the Government of Tamil Nadu according to a
999-year lease agreement made during erstwhile British colonial rule. The
government of Tamil Nadu has proposed an increase in the storage level of the
dam from the currently maintained 136 feet to 142 feet. The Kerala government
has opposed this move, citing safety concerns for the more than hundred year
old bridge and especially for the thickly populated districts downstream.
A five member Empowered Committee headed by the former CJI, A S Anand, has
been constituted to go into the safety of the Mullaperiyar dam.
