Cauvery water dispute: Karnataka to move Supreme Court challenging panel’s direction to release water to Tamil Nadu, says CM Siddaramaiah
The Cauvery Water Regulation Committee’s panel directed Karnataka to release water at the rate of 3000 cubic feet per second (cusecs) to Tamil Nadu from September 28 to October 15.
Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Wednesday affirmed that his government will approach the Supreme Court challenging the Cauvery Water Regulation Committee’s order to the state to release water to Tamil Nadu.
On Tuesday night, the Cauvery Water Regulation Committee’s panel directed Karnataka to release water at the rate of 3000 cubic feet per second (cusecs) to its neigbouring state, Tamil Nadu from September 28 to October 15.
The conflict between the two states broke out when the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) order directed Karnataka to continue releasing 5000 cusecs of water to Tamil Nadu for another 15 days. Following the order, top Congress leaders of Karnataka maintained that there is no surplus water available to be released.
Speaking on the matter, the Karnataka Chief Minister noted that he had spoken to the state’s legal team, which suggested that the matter should be challenged in the Supreme Court. He added that they have decided to challenge the order of the Regulation Committee before the apex court, adding that they don’t have water to give.
Meanwhile on Tuesday, Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar had expressed satisfaction over CWRC rejecting the request of Tamil Nadu, which demanded Karnataka to release 12,000 cusecs.
As per reports, Karnataka submitted before CWRC at its meeting in New Delhi on Tuesday the shortfall in cumulative inflows to its four reservoirs in the Cauvery basin up to September 25, that hold just 53.04 per cent of their capacity.
According to Karnataka officials, owing to the failure of the south-west monsoon from June to September this year, there is no adequate storage in the four reservoirs and the state is witnessing a grave situation, where it is even difficult to cater to the drinking water requirements, let alone supplying for irrigation. Notably, this year in August and September, Karnataka received the lowest amount of rainfall in the last 123 years.
