Months before the war of words broke out between Sumalatha, Mandya MP, and the JD(S) leaders over the safety of KRS reservoir, which is considered to be the lifeline of thousands in Karnataka and neighbouring Tamil Nadu, the Irrigation Department had invited a team of experts from Dhanbad-based Central Institute of Mining and Fuel Research (CIMFR), to study the impact of quarrying on the dam. The team, which had already inspected the dam and the quarries during a site visit, were scheduled to carry out trial blasts at different locations in the vicinity of the dam. “But, last month, they wrote to us informing that they were unable to make the visit due to COVID-19. They will let us know the next date soon,” said an official of the Irrigation Department.
