Mr.Uttam Rao, We are not denying water for the unirrigated arid lands of the mentioned regions. First, we should introspect the type of landscape in all these connected regions. Mandya, Chamrajnager, Bangaorlore rural, Kolar in Karnataka, Dharmapuri, Krishnagiri, Thiruvannamalai districts of TN, Cuppam, Anantapur districts in Andhra have more or less similar lanscape i.e. rocky terrain and uneven. Agriculture in such places is not as easy as in plains. Blaming TN as not letting Karnatak people to do agriculture in an arid lanscape is unfair. This is the same case with TN farmers in Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri districts.
