While thanking the Madurai Corporation for organising a public hearing on the proposed drinking water project for Madurai City from Mullaiperiyar reservoir, the participants were divided over the proposal to fix water meters. Commissioner Karthikeyan presided over the hearing. Deputy Commissioner Sangeetha, City Engineer (in charge) Suganthi and senior officials were present. Representatives of resident welfare associations and the general public from 57 wards of the 100-ward city were present. They were impressed that the new drinking water project would fulfil their long-pending demand at last. When the city limits was increased from 72 wards to 100 wards during the last AIADMK rule, the then Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami had laid the foundation stone for the Mullaiperiyar project on an outlay of ₹1,100 crore. After the initial survey and detailed project report, tenders were floated.
