Toxic foams emerged in water released from Kelavarapalli dam in Hosur in Krishnagiri district, resulting in disruption of traffic.

Perhaps, the discharge of industrial effluents from Karnataka is blamed for high levels of pollution in the Thenpennai river.

Heavy rains in Karnataka and Krishnagiri have prompted an increase in inflow into the Kelavarapalli dam over the last few days.

A surge in water flow in the river, already mixed with industrial effluents into the river, has turned it foamy. The inundated low-lying bridge on Hosur-Nandimangalam Road was blanketed with mounds of froth by a few feet in height.

Because of the foamy obstruction, vehicle movement to over ten villages including Nandimangalam, Thattanapalli, Chithanapalli and Devichettipalli has been stopped.
