Karnataka denied justice.
by manjunath Lakshmipathy on Feb 07, 2007 02:03 AM

The author makes correct assessment in the sense Karnataka is denied justice by the Tribunal. TN has been awarded greater amount of water even though they don't deserve it. As it has been noted, over the last 15-20 years, K'taka has been giving more water to TN than any tribunal or court orders mandated. But no one challenges the dubious TN claims that it is getting less. Secondly, TN also increased the cultivation land by several lakh hectares in the past 5 years even though there is shortage of water. This is a case of crying baby receiving more attention. The tribunal verdict should be challenged and further redressal provided to Karnataka.
