Noyyal River Floods: Nallamman Dam Temple Submerged, Anaippalayam Bridge Inundated in Tirupur

Heavy rains in Coimbatore and Tirupur districts have caused flooding in the Noyyal River. The Nallamman Dam Temple is surrounded by water, and the Anaippalayam Bridge is submerged.


Tirupur: The Noyyal River is experiencing severe flooding, with water surrounding the Nallamman Dam Temple and submerging the Anaippalayam Bridge. The floodwaters are overflowing the banks, causing concern in the nearby areas.



As the northeast monsoon has begun, Coimbatore and Tirupur districts have been receiving heavy rainfall for the past few days. This has resulted in a significant increase in the water levels of the Noyyal River. The situation is particularly critical near Vanchipaalayam in Tiruppur, where the Nallamman Dam Temple is now completely surrounded by water. The pathway leading to the temple has been submerged, making it inaccessible to the public. The police have advised people not to attempt visiting the temple due to the dangerous conditions.



Furthermore, the Anaippalayam Bridge near Aandipalayam has been inundated by the swollen Noyyal River. The floodwaters are touching both banks of the river as they flow over the bridge. To ensure public safety, the police have set up barricades and are monitoring the area to prevent any vehicles from crossing the submerged bridge.



Authorities are on high alert and are closely monitoring the situation as the water levels continue to rise. Residents in low-lying areas along the Noyyal River have been advised to stay vigilant and follow any evacuation orders if issued. The local administration is taking necessary precautions to minimize the impact of the floods and ensure the safety of the people in the affected areas.
