Restoration work, estimated to cost ₹250 crore, will commence soon in the southern districts that have been severely affected by the unprecedented torrential rain, Minister for Water Resources Duraimurugan said in the Assembly on Thursday.
Responding to concerns raised by Nainar Nagenthran of the BJP, the Minister said a total of 480 projects had been identified. Mr. Nagenthran said plastic debris and discarded clothes, among others, were found in the Tamirabarani after the rain and floods.
