Mullaperiyar Row : Centre Invites TN, Kerala For Talks

New Delhi, Dec 5: Stepping in to defuse the crisis, the Centre on Monday invited senior officials from Tamil Nadu and Kerala for discussions on the Mullaperiyar dam issue even as the Supreme Court-appointed empowered panel decided to send a two-member team to the site for an on-the-spot assessment.

Union Water Resources Ministry on Monday sent out letters to Secretaries of Water Resources departments in both states, inviting them for a meeting on the issue either on December 15 or 16 here, sources said.

This will be the first official meeting between the two sides on the issue in six years.
