Siruvani Reservoir Water Level Drops due to Lack of Rainfall

Officials reported a decrease in water levels at Siruvani Reservoir, crucial for Coimbatore and surrounding villages, from 10.04 feet to 9.48 feet due to insufficient rainfall.


Coimbatore: Siruvani Reservoir, a vital water source for Coimbatore City Corporation and nearby village areas, has witnessed a significant drop in water levels this month. Initially recorded at 10.04 feet after recent rains, the reservoir's water level has currently decreased to 9.48 feet.
