    I support this. Polali Shri Rajarajeswari Temple is very famous and lot of devotees come here to get their wishes fulfilled. Such a holy place should be getting into this kind of trouble by having the dam in Gupur river. This needs to be stopped without any question. It has a great history behind it. I am sure the concern from these villagers will be given utmost importance and this project will be put to hold.
