Commenting on the Mullaiperiyar conflict, former President, Mr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, has said that the leaders of the States concerned have to sit together and arrive at a consensus to resolve the issue.
Speaking on the sidelines of the AgriCon 2011 conference, Mr Kalam also suggested nationalising rivers to resolve conflicts relating to water.
"Interlinking rivers and dams to form a smart national grid will solve conflicts. India cannot afford fighting over water resources," said Mr Kalam.
