KSEB is raising 2 shutters of Anathode Dam of Kakki reservoir by 25 cm to discharge 25 cumecs water to main PAMBA RIVER.
Please note that while generating water goes to Kakkad Ar. Here water to parent river Pamba.
This quantity is so meagre in comparison with river capacity

Though it will not create any flood, but same time people should not venture into the river for bathing, swimming and other activities as the velocity of flow will be more for many km immediate downstream.
You had experienced a flood of 2900 cumecs in August 2018 and seen a discharge of 1338 cumecs in August 2020 in this river at Malakkara G&D site of CWC.
So to get a clear perspective please compare the value of 25 cumecs with these figures. Today the river flow is 170 cumecs.

The full bank capacity of Pamba River at Malakkara is around 1300 cumecs.
We are releasing the water since it is marginally above the upper rule curve as an abundant precaution, though ample flood space is available in the reservoir.
