Theni Kumbakkarai Waterfall:
As the yellow warning for heavy rain in Theni Kumbakarai Falls has ended, the forest department has ordered to allow tourists to bathe again.
Theni district has many popular tourist spots. Among them the waterfalls like Kumbakarai, Suruli, Meghamalai are very popular among tourists.
Increase in water flow:
This waterfall originates from Kodaikanal and flows through two natural stages, so the water flow here is unique.
And since this waterfall is located in a dense forest area, the water coming from the waterfall is mixed with herbal properties and is a healing medicine.
Bathing in the waterfall is prohibited:
Hence, there are throngs of tourists throughout the year to take this magical bath.
Generally, this waterfall does not have water inflow in summer, so the waterfall looks dry, so in March this year, the water inflow to Kumbakkarai waterfall decreased, so the water flow in the waterfall was not seen much.

In this situation, due to the summer rains that have been falling for the past few days and the heavy rains that have been falling in the water catchment area, the water flow to Kumbakarai waterfall has increased. Also due to heavy rains in Theni, there was flood in Kumbakkarai waterfall and tourists were banned from bathing due to safety concerns.
In this situation, as the yellow warning for heavy rain has ended and the flow of water in the waterfall has stabilized, the forest department has given permission for tourists to bathe.
