BANGALORE: An all-party delegation from the state would visit New Delhi on Monday to meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to urge him not to notify the proposed final award of the Cauvery Water Disputes Tribunal.
The delegation lead by chief minister Jagadish Shettar comprises MPs, Union ministers from the state and opposition party leaders. The delegation would convince the PM not to notify the final award as the state was facing drought and drinking water problems.
Rejecting the demand for replacing Fali Nariman as head of Karnataka's legal team on Cauvery, the chief minister on Sunday said in Hubli that the former had represented the case for the past forty years. "It is not possible for Karnataka to release Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu for now as the state is facing drought and acute drinking water scarcity. Despite acute shortage, our government has released water to TN honouring the Supreme Court order. But for now, it is not possible for us to release water under the present condition," Shettar said.
The state commenced release of Cauvery water to TN from February 9 complying with the apex court order directing it to release 2.44tmc ft to save standing crops. Karnataka has already moved SC seeking review of its order citing depleted storage in its reservoirs.
