The Mullaperiyar Dam Story
The Mullaperiyar Dam which exists across Periyar River in Idukki has passed its 116 years. It was constructed by a British engineer under the supervision of Mr. Benny Cook in the year 1895 with the agreement signed by the king of Travancore. It was predicted with a life span of 50 years. There were occurred minor earthquakes before, since 1979. Since then safety concerns were raised by Kerala Government, due to the leaks and cracks in the dam. Now it was passed 66 years more than the expected life time.
The recently occurred tremors in Idukki had shaken the old dam. And so it is the current issue, that the dam will not suffer any more EQs with magnitude more than 6 in Richter scale. And if it occurs, it will become the terrific disaster that had ever occurred in the Asian continent. According to the study committee the temporary method to reduce the huge human loss is to lift down the water level from 136 feet to 120 feet. Kerala is willing to construct the new dam by stably providing sufficient water to Tamil Nadu. But this attempt is opposed by Tamil Nadu authorities. The reason that lined up by the state is that the dam is strong enough to withstand any tremors and so there is no need for a new one. Besides, Tamil Nadu is demanding to maintain the water level at 136 ft. itself to face the emerging needs for irrigation and power generation. They are saying that the Kerala political leaders are simply spreading panic among the public. So to make a solution to this problem, the Kerala chief minister Oomen Chandy recommended the PM Manmohan Singh to directly involve in the issue. Also he suggested the Roorkee IIT to conduct a hazard assessment. Supreme Court is demanding a join settlement of two states in the issue. But it will not happen till the accusation among the political leaders of two states remains. If any disaster occurs, lakhs of people in four districts, Idukki, Ernakulam, Kottayam and Alappuzha as well as the wild life sanctuary will be vanished. So by seriously considering the life of more than thirty lakh people, the state govt. should go ahead with the construction of a new dam.
Anyway this issue has made a threat among the people in Kerala. People protested against the lack of action throughout the state. It is notable that the Kerala state authorities have not taken any safety measures yet to protect the people residing down areas of the dam. Now the important thing is to take action to empty the surroundings of the dam. The failure of Periyar dam could lead to the failure of Idukki arch dam. Though the evacuation of people is impossible, state govt. should take precautions to protect the people. So it’s the time for the two states to stop its arguments and started to work together.

Report of Kerala Gamers Meet
When Gamers Met..!!!
- Kerala Gamers Meet
Even though the Meet-up had only a few attendees to boast of, the event could still be marked as a success considering the effect of PC games in our state. Indiagames along side CSharks organized this Meet-up especially for gamers in Kerala. The meet up was conducted on last 17 September. The major aim of the event was to remind gamers around the world that there are serious gamers in India too. And the event organized at Lokah Restaurant, Cochin showed there are serious gamers in Kerala as well. The gamers had a good time together sharing their views with fellow gamers. Eldhose P. Mathew, the CEO of CSharks says he is still vary about the gaming trends in Kerala. He added that their aim is to build a community of gamers with the aid of similar Meet-ups. CSharks is a Cochin based Game Development Company with most of their clients outside India. The event was a platform for gamers to share their views and to share their passion for games. The main discussion was about latest games and different platforms for games. Most of the attendees prefer gaming in mobile devices and other hand held gadgets to high end games in consoles. Many listed Angry birds as their currently favorite game and there was Batman Arkham Asylum which was favored by Unnikrishnan Balachandran who is an avid gamer from Kozhikode.

IIT in Kerala… Finally?
During Prime Minister’s recent visit to Kerala he had mentioned the need of an Institution of International standard in Kerala. It has been a long time waiting for our state, often referred to as a land of brains, to have an institution like IIT (Indian Institute of Technology). IITs are currently established in 15 states and it’s a shame one of them is not in Kerala. The State Government has promised to take measures, to realize this long time dream into a reality. But there are certain hurdles to clear before it becomes true. Various political parties who believe education and related fields are theirs to rule would find the proposal a bitter pill to swallow. IIT is purely governed by their own interests and political influence is little. Hence these so called parties who claim they are the ambassadors of education won’t be pleased. Kerala State Chief Minister Mr. Oommen Chandy is in support of the project and believes the State Government could convince the Central Government to sanction the project. Another major worry for the purpose is availability of land. It would require a minimum of 200 acres of land for an institution of IIT’s caliber to begin with and around 300-400 acres of land for the Institution to work efficiently. We are already in shortage of land for various projects, but unlike them this one project we really would not want to miss. Hence there should be serious thoughts on the issue, and rapid measures are ought to be taken before this project also gets away from our grasps. But it’s not just about a single institution being established in our state. It’s about the possibilities it can bring to our land. The quality it brings to our education is huge and having such quality opposition makes rival Universities or Institutions to raise their standards as well. And such healthy competition eventually is an added advantage for our education and our future generations will benefit from this. An Institution completely dedicated to education and research, it’s a benefit in all ways to our educational system. There are 140 odd Engineering colleges in Kerala and students and the faculties from these colleges can continue their research here in IIT. Here we are looking forward to a bright future for our Educational system. There will be a lot of obstacles on the way, but the Government and the associated officials should have a clear view of the situations and any opposition should be tackled. There will be a lot of companies and firms who could come and establish themselves in Kerala, thus increasing opportunities. So we have to turn this dream into a reality, so that many young hearts could dream and fulfill those dreams, that too in the near future. It’s better late than never.
