IndiaWater levels in the KRS and Kabini reservoirs within the Cauvery basin continued to rise on Sunday due to heavy inflows following significant rainfall in their catchment areas. The KRS reservoir reached 98.8 feet, nearing its full level of 124.8 feet, with an inflow of 31,583 cusecs. Kabini reservoir approached its maximum level of 2,284 feet above mean sea level, recording an inflow of 27,217 cusecs. Authorities released 25,000 cusecs through the dam’s crest gates and 2,000 cusecs into the canal system. This caused a low-level bridge near the dam to be submerged and disrupted connectivity to nearby villages. A flood warning was issued for residents in low-lying areas. In Kodagu district, rainfall eased after heavy showers. The road between Karigodu and Chikkanahalli villages was submerged, prompting advisories to avoid the route. Water levels also rose at the Triveni Sangama and Harangi reservoir, where discharge rates were adjusted.
