Cauvery in spate: Over 1,200 people shifted to relief camps in Tamil Nadu

Overflowing water from the Cauvery river entered several low-lying areas in Namakkal and Erode districts, leading to the relocation of over 1,000 people to relief camps. Authorities closed bridges and routes near the river and issued warnings. Discharge from Mettur dam was maintained, but inflow from Karnataka dams might increase, posing further challenges.
