										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With torrential rains falling over Kerala since Saturday night, water levels in different dams have reached red alert levels, and several roadways have been flooded by Sunday morning. The condition is predicted to persist for the next two days, especially in the southern portions of the state, according to the weather agency.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>According to the Tamil Nadu government, the water level in the Mullaperiyar dam surpassed 140 feet on Sunday morning, according to the Idukki district administration. As an outcome, residents on both banks of the Periyar should be particularly cautious, as the dam&#8217;s shutters could be opened in the next 24 hours if the water level rises higher, posing a risk of excess water overflowing, according to the report.</p>
