Mullaperiyar dam row: Kerala, Tamil Nadu CMs should chalk out amicable settlement, says Kalam

Worried over the Mullaperiyar dam row, former president A P J Abdul Kalam today said that the Chief Ministers of Kerala and Tamil Nadu should meet on the issue at the earliest and come up with an amicable settlement.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a function at Sanik School at nearby Kazhakkoottam, Kalam said the two CMs should take an objective view of various aspects of the issue during the meeting.

“The foremost thing is that the two Chief Ministers meet and chalk out an amicable settlement. The meeting should discuss the cost, benefit and safety of the dam”, Kalam said.

He further added that the terms between the people of the two states should not be broken over such an issue.
