If the bridge collapses, it could isolate hundreds of families and hinder emergency services. Tourism in Kodaikanal has been severely impacted, with popular spots deserted. The rising water levels in the Vaigai Dam highlight the risk of further flooding in downstream areas. Residents are urged to remain vigilant and prepare for potential evacuations.
