Proposal for Pampa-Achankovil-Vaipar river linking raises concern

The annual general meeting of the National Water Development Agency (NWDA), scheduled to be held on December 17, has included a feasibility report on the Pampa-Achankovil-Vaipar link project, which has triggered a controversy.

While experts in the state have cautioned that the project would sound the death knell for Vembanad Lake, the state government seems to be clueless.

While chief ministers and irrigation ministers are representing other states, Kerala is sending an official-additional chief secretary for water resources to the meeting.
