Dr. Vasantha Kumar said that breaches in the Vanjiyar and Arasalar in Tamil Nadu had caused water to overflow in Nedungadu.
The residents of Vizhudiyur complained to the Chief Minister that the breach had caused the water to flow into their houses. The Chief Minister assured them of immediate action. An ambulance was being provided to treat emergency cases in all the communes.
