Mettur Dam in Tamil Nadu Fills for Sixth Time in 2025

The Mettur dam in Tamil Nadu, a big water source for farmers, has filled up completely for the sixth time this year.

This means a lot of water is being released downstream, so people near the river Cauvery need to be careful.

The dam is important because it helps grow crops and provides water and power for many areas.

Farmers are happy because it means they can plant their crops, but officials are still watching to manage any potential flooding.
