HDK Demands Release of Activists Arrested During Karnataka Bandh

News 18  

Former Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy on Friday demanded that the state government release the activists detained during the bandh to protest the release of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu. Today’s bandh was called by the ‘Kannada Okkoota’, an umbrella organisation of Kannada and farmers’ outfits, to oppose the release of water to neighbouring Tamil Nadu. As the southern parts of the state are witnessing a bandh by farmers and pro-Kannada outfits over the Cauvery issue, Kumaraswamy, the JD second-in-command, said the unity of the ‘Kannada family’ should be a wake-up call to the neighbouring state. When it comes to the question of land, language and water, everyone should be united, the former CM said, adding this harmony and unity in the Kannada family should be a wake-up call to the neighbouring states.
