MYSURU
The inflow into Kabini dam in Mysuru district has gone up following torrential rain in its catchment areas for the past few days. The dam authorities have issued a flood alert, cautioning the people living on the riverbank to move to safer places as the outflow into the river may go up anytime in view of incessant downpour.
As the dam is inching closer to its maximum level, water at the rate of nearly 4,000 cusecs was discharged into the river from the dam on Thursday.
