message: Now its corrected as the Dam is owned by Kerala..so request you to kindly correct the name of the owner of this dam as Kerala instead of Tamilnadu  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.220.74.5 (talk) 07:07, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The citations for lease agreement states that dam is leased to Tamil nadu; which implies owner is not Tamil Nadu. Also, the Reference 1 pdf (National Register of Large Dams) indicates the operating body of the dam (eg: Parambikulam, Aliyar, etc). Further, the lead clearly states "the dam is controlled and operated under a period lease by neighboring Tamil Nadu state". Hence, there is no confusion here.

replies: text: To add further to the suggestions above - extensive details of the new dam proposed by Kerala government should not be here since it would be a different dam altogether at a different location. This proposal should be moved to the dispute article along with section on dam safety. Although this latter section might at first glance seem relevant here, the issues raised about the safety are rather more of accusations of one party which once again is part of the dispute rather than agreed facts. It is under the best interest of this main article that these sections are summarised here like Aarem suggested but keep altogether a separate article as per Peall's sun's proposal . --Wiki San Roze †αLҝ 14:13, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

text: I agree with the aforementioned; a summary here and more details in Tamil Nadu-Kerala dam row. The controversy seems notable enough for a separate article. Particularly a controversy on an existing dam.--NortyNort  (Holla) 20:53, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

message: This book states that the dam was built with concrete filling (refer pages 182 and 188). Nevertheless, I am not sure of the reliability of the source. But this contradicts the commonly mentioned lime stone and "surkhi" filling. --Wiki San Roze †αLҝ 15:06, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: On the contrary, it was filled with concrete and faced with rubble vide the builder himself. However, in those days, in my opinion, as per my knowledge, concrete in India was created by heating limestone (to make hydraulic lime), to which surkhi (powdered burnt brick), at times aggregate or pebbles were added. Also see Concrete#History. Prepared cement for a project would have to be imported from Europe at much greater cost than lime can be made (even today). The project already had financial problems so it is highly unlikely costly cement would have been imported when limestone is so cheaply available over all of India. So the concrete was probably lime-surkhi concrete not cement concrete. The rubble would probably have been held together with lime mortar. In the diagram of Pennycuick, the central part of the dam is mentioned as the concrete filling and the facings are rubble, not vice versa as people sometimes think.

It is given in the TN govt official website that Mullaperiyar Dam has leased to TN  by Kerala. So the State of Kerala owned this Dam.

thread_title:  Discussion about ownership of the dam 

message: hello friends,
             
As far as i know the dam is called by the name "mullaiperiyar dam" In tn and all tamil websites.the headings and the spelling of dam's name is quoted in the article as "mullaperiyar" which hence becomes a Malayali Name this creates a dispute,confusion and questions wikipedia of its central stance on this issue.Even the name of dam is been written in tamil for many yrs in newspapers as "முல்லைப்பெரியார் அணை ". so can u reconsider the spelling of name.if i am wrong in my stance please notify me
: Central stance is to retain the name 'Mullaperiyar' as the Dam is owned by Kerala and all the English language documentation except from TN written as described above. Abhilashkrishn (talk) 04:19, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Proof required regarding 'central stance' and Mullaiperiyar finds pretty much the same kind of mention across several national and international media. I have provided for the sources in the article.--CuCl2 (chat  spy acquaint) 16:25, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: The "National Register of Large Dams (NRLD)" http://www.cwc.nic.in/main/downloads/New%20NRLD.pdf#page=192 clearly mentions that the "4(four) Dams namely Mullai Periyar(Periyar),Thunacadavu,Parambikulam and Peruvaripallam are located in Kerala State and are operated and maintained by Tamil Nadu PWD.". So where does the dispute arise? In addition to this the ex-Chief Minister to "Tamilnadu" has clearly clarified the ownership of these dams.http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/Tamil-Nadu-owns-four-Kerala-dams-Jaya/articleshow/37413127.cms. If we keep adding dispute based on ever single politicians comments then almost ever single article on wiki would have a dispute tag. Lets take the "National Register of Large Dams (NRLD)" entry as a proof and mention "Tamilnadu" to both own a operate these 4 dams which are located within Kerala Borders.
