Notify award only after pending petitions are disposed of, K'taka urges Centre
A day after the Supreme Court set the February 20 deadline to notify the final award of the Cauvery Water Disputes Tribunal, the Karnataka Government has urged the Centre not to issue the notification till the disposal of two civil petitions pending in the Supreme Court and a review petition in the tribunal. Chief Minister Jagadish Shettar told the Legislative Assembly that the government would fight a legal battle to ensure justice to farmers of the State. There would be no compromise in safeguarding the State’s share in the water, he said. It has been decided to convene a meeting of floor leaders of the State legislature on Wednesday to discuss a strategy to be adopted in the wake of the Supreme Court order.
