New Delhi:
The Supreme Court on Tuesday asked the Karnataka government to release 6000 cusecs of water to Tamil Nadu for two days to show its bona fide. The apex court said that no state in a federal structure like India can say no to the Supreme Court order and indulge in a fight with another state.
The Centre would try to resolve the Cauvery water issue and will call a meeting between the chief ministers of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka in the next two days, Attorney general Mukul Rohatgi told the court.
The court has granted permission to the Centre to call a meeting between Jayalalithaa and Siddaramiah and submit a report on Friday. The Supreme Court also said that it won’t consider the Karnataka Assembly resolution not to release Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu.
