Why is TN government not allowing kerala to constuct new dam istead of mullaperiar in priyar river?

The reason behind this much hyped question is that the Kerala Government is wanting to build a new dam thus reducing and eventually stopping water supply to Tamil nadu. This fear among the Tamil people is the reason for Tamilnadu's current stance. Wherein Kerala people want to build a new dam stating that the dam is weak and would break and cause a disaster killing 'Half or more of Kerala'. It is to be noted that the 116 old dam has been built on a very a strong 'base'. It has been ensured that the dam would be able to withstand for a many a year to come.
