The Eelam People's Society (EPS) has called on Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay to implement the Nadanthai Vazhi Cauvery project, a scheme that was initiated during the former AIADMK government. The project aims to divert water from the Cauvery River to support irrigation and agriculture in the state.
EPS highlighted that the initiative could significantly benefit farmers in water‑scarce regions and improve agricultural productivity. The group urged the CM to consider the project’s potential to address long‑standing water distribution challenges.
The call comes amid growing discussions about water sharing and irrigation infrastructure in Tamil Nadu. EPS’s demand reflects a broader push for revisiting past projects that could enhance water security for the state's agrarian communities.
