Flowing through the Deccan Plateau, river Cauvery has also been flowing through the cultural past of Southern India into the present. However, various industrial effluents and sewage pollutants, sand mining on a rampant scale, especially for the benefit of major urban centers as Bangalore and proposed developmental projects like linking of rivers and dams on the river, endanger her flow for the future. ‘Celebrating Cauvery’ on the occasion of the 7th International Day of Action Against Dams: For River, Water, and Life at Vikasana (a school supporting ecological and community development, located on Kanakpura Road) and Sangam (the confluence point of the Cauvery and the Arkavathi) on March 13, and 14, 2004 respectively, was aimed at raising voices in unison against destructive water development projects and pollution of rivers, reclaiming the health of rivers and watersheds and demanding an equitable and sustainable management of waterways.
