Cauvery Contempt Plea: SC Pulls Up Centre For Not Framing The Scheme As Per The Judgment, Directs To Submit Draft Plan By May 3

Live Law  

The Supreme Court on Monday reprimanded the Centre for not having complied with its February 16 verdict in the Cauvery river water dispute for framing of the scheme under section 6A of the Interstate river disputes act of 1956.The apex court on Monday directed the Centre to file the draft scheme before the court by May 3. “Our directions were clear that the scheme was to come into existence within 6 weeks of the judgment.we are surprised that it has not been done so far considering the struggle that ensued in this litigation.we have to assume a different kind of jurisdiction now.the Central government must show its bonafide that it wishes to frame the scheme and distribute the water.file a draft scheme before this court in a time bound manner so that the states can respond thereto upon which it shall become binding.”, admonished Chief Justice Dipak Misra. “Everyone who knows basic English could understand the judgment.it is only the Centre, for whatever reasons, which had some difficulty.Towards the fag end of the deadline for the implementation of the scheme, the Union of India tried to consult with the states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Kerala and the UT of Pudducherry regarding the modalities of the scheme.now if every state replies to this draft scheme, it shall open the scope for even more litigation.please let the Centre only frame and implement the scheme.”, prayed Senior Counsel Shekhar Naphade appearing on behalf of the state of Tamil Nadu. The bench headed by CJI Dipak Misra also directed the Centre to frame a scheme under section 6A of the Inter State River Disputes Act of 1956 within six weeks so that the authorities under the scheme can see to it that its decision which has modified the award passed by the tribunal is “smoothly made functional”.
