Latest Answer: As a result of this misunderstanding, some officials from the forest department started fighting with the irrigation dept employees and managed to break the checkpost too. This led to further retaliation by the irrigation officials when they locked up the pump house and other installations of the reservoir. They also absconded from duty demanding action against the forest officials.

Latest Answer: While it is quite surprising that the project is actually nearing completion, it is important to know that this was possible for the civic body because of the new main storage reservoir that was being supplied to Pilloor 11, giving it about 65 million litres everyday. The point of the Pilloor 11 water tank is that it can now supply water to the areas that were previously being supplied by Pilloor 1 that was backed by the Tamil Nadu Water Supply and Drainage board. The Pilloor 11 project will supply about 125 million litres per day, which should be enough for Ganapathy and areas surrounding it.
