Not Court, Only Parliament Can Form Cauvery Board: Centre To SC [Read the Application]

Live Law  

The Supreme Court was told by the Centre today that forming the Cauvery Water Management Board is the sole prerogative of Parliament and that any court did not have the jurisdiction to issue any direction to government on this.“The constitution of the Cauvery Water Management Board requires the consent of both houses of Parliament and that it cannot be formed on the orders of the apex. Setting the stage for further confrontation with the Supreme Court, the Karnataka government on Saturday filed a fresh review petition in the Supreme Court against its three recent orders on Cauvery water release to Tamil Nadu and direction for constitution of Cauvery Water Management Board by Centre. Expressing serious concern at the continuing stalemate between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu on the Cauvery water sharing issue, the Supreme Court had on Friday asked the Centre to constitute a Cauvery Water Management Board within three days. The bench of justices Dipak Misra and U U Lalit asked Karnataka to release Cauvery water from October 1 to six The bench had warned Karnataka that it was the last chance before the “wrath of law falls on the State” WHAT IT SAYS The review petitions said that apex court has committed an error in directing the Centre to constitute Cauvery Management Board, without considering the fact that three judges of apex court has held in 2013 that direction to constitute the board can wait and may be heard along with the civil appeal. On Monday, Karnataka moved the Supreme Court seeking a modification of the September 20th order, requiring the state to release 6,000 cusecs of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu every day from September 21st to 26th.
