Srirangapatna: The boating service for tourists and visitors at Ranganathittu, which was temporarily stopped following heavy discharge of water from KRS Dam to Cauvery River, resumed yesterday.
Following heavy rains in Kodagu and Cauvery River catchment areas last month, there was heavy inflow of water to KRS Dam and the dam had reached its maximum capacity of 124.80 ft. The authorities, for the safety of the Dam, began releasing large quantity of water to Cauvery River resulting in Ranganathittu Bird Sanctuary getting flooded and the islands submerging.
