ASI Confirms Structural Stability of Kalingarayan Canal Aqueduct in Erode

A recent assessment has identified water seepage through masonry joints as the primary concern impacting the integrity of the monument. Experts recommend implementing targeted conservation measures to address and mitigate this issue effectively.

This finding highlights the importance of ongoing maintenance and restoration efforts to preserve the monuments structural stability and historical value. Water infiltration can lead to further degradation if not addressed promptly, potentially resulting in more extensive repairs in the future. Conservation specialists are now expected to develop a comprehensive strategy that includes sealing the masonry joints and improving drainage around the site to enhance its longevity.
