Water level in KRS dips to the lowest in 10 years [1]

The onset of monsoon has not helped in filling up Krishnaraj Sagar (KRS) reservoir, where the water level has dipped to lowest in the last 10 years.

The inflow has not increased due to scanty rainfall in the catchment areas, especially Waynad in Kerala and Kodagu in Karnataka. The water level in the reservoir, on Wednesday, stood at 62.92 feet with an inflow of 277 cusec and outflow of 764 cusec.
