The dispute about the "Mullaperi-yar dam" involves the states of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The Mullaperi-yar dam is located in Kerala, but it serves as a major source of water supply for the neighboring state of Tamil Nadu. The conflict arises from the distribution and sharing of water from the dam between the two states. Option 1, which suggests Karnataka and Tamil Nadu as the involved states, is incorrect. Option 3, which mentions Kerala and Karnataka, is also incorrect. Similarly, option 4, which states Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, is unrelated to the Mullaperi-yar dam dispute. Hence, the correct answer is option 2 - Tamil Nadu and Kerala.
