Shivamogga (Karnataka), June 01 (ANI): Shivamogga city of Karnataka might face acute water shortage as Tunga dam that provides water to the city is reaching a dead storage level. The city which has a population of about 3.60 lakh is dependent on the dam water for its everyday water supply; however, the intense summer season has led to dip in the present water level in the dam. Outlining the gravity of the alarming situation, Executive Engineer Ramesh told ANI, "The Monsoon is delayed. Because of dead storage, we are only able to draw very less amount of water. We can manage for a month with available water. We have requested the irrigation authority to take suitable action to preserve the required amount of water. We cannot use dead storage water for any purpose except drinking, so district administration has ordered to preserve water". Ramesh also said that the district administration has already issued orders to not supply water for irrigation and has made water supply for the public as its first priority.
