OK, I did the merge, since they are clearly the same river. It looks like there are a number of alternate spellings, however, with no clarity on which might be preferred.Lisamh 19:26, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, there's yet another article Tambaraparani River. I believe another merge is in order. --Madhu 15:50, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The standard English spelling is Tamraparni.-Ravichandar _{My coffee shop} 11:01, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There are two separate rivers with the same name Tambaraparani River in the adjoining districts of Tirunelveli and Kanyakumari. Both originate in the Agastya hills and possibly within a short distance (under 10 km) from each other. We need two separate articles. --Sahana 13:30 UTC, 10 Feb 2022 — Preceding undated comment added 13:25, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
