"The Chief Minister had earlier stated that water could not be released for crops. It is like selling out at home and doing charity in the village. The state government did not present a proper argument before the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA), and that is why this verdict has come," Vijayendra alleged.
The CWRC has recommended that Karnataka release a total of 4 TMC of water to Tamil Nadu. Responding to the directive, Karnataka Water Resources Minister Ramalinga Reddy said the state was facing a severe water shortage and that the government would discuss the matter with Chief Minister DK Shivakumar before taking a final decision.
The latest development comes amid an ongoing dispute between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu over sharing Cauvery waters. Karnataka has maintained that deficient rainfall and poor reservoir inflows have left it with limited water meant primarily for drinking purposes, while Tamil Nadu has sought implementation of the Supreme Court's directions on water sharing.
