Cauvery water row: KRRS files plea before SC seeking to implead in case related to Tamil Nadu’s petition

The Hindu  

The Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha has filed an application before the Supreme Court seeking to implead as a respondent in the case related to Tamil Nadu’s petition on August 14 seeking release of Cauvery water from Karnataka. The KRRS said that people of Karnataka, who are dependent on Cauvery water, would be at peril and the life of farmers in the basin districts would be affected if the petition of Tamil Nadu seeking direction to Karnataka to release water is entertained by the court. The water requirement for Tamil Nadu for growing Kuruvai crop from June to September is 32.27 tmcft for irrigating 1,85,100 acres of crop as recognised by Cauvery Water Disputes Tribunal, it said. Referring to the excessive water usage, the KRRS contented that the area allowed for Kuruvai crop irrigation in Tamil Nadu might be 7,40,000 acres as against the allowed quantum of 1,85,100 acres.
