Kerala - Kochi
Water ideas
It seems that as people are growing tired of drinking water shortage, they are coming up with more and more ideas on how to combat the issue.
The latest among these ideas is the one put up by the Visala Kochi Kudivella Samrakshana Samithi. The samithi has called upon the Cochin Port Trust to come up with its own water supply scheme for catering to the needs at the port.
T.E. Thomas, secretary of the samithi, has even written to the trust, outlining the possibilities of finding a separate water source for them.
The idea is to collect water from the Periyar at Edamula, which can be taken to the port. The surplus water can be sold to the Navy or other large-scale users, Mr. Thomas says.
Kochi Refineries Ltd. is already running its own supply scheme drawing water from the Periyar.
