This article is totally provacative and it is biased. For instance look at the table... The water allocated column is the right for each state. But in reality, the amount of water given to Tamilnadu is only 192 TMC and out of this Tamilnadu needs to give 30 TMC to Kerala and 7 TMC to Pondicherry. So finally TamilNadu is left with only 155. I am actually from Pondicherry.... even then i feel pitty for tamilnadu that is not crying on loosing water to Karnataka..... The fact is Tamilnadu is looser.......

Thats the price tamil nadu had to pay for suppressing vital information and playing politics in the name of water for votes. successives governments in tamilnadu tried not to present ground reality to tribunal, they were overeconfident of getting favourable ruling. Karnataka on the other hand was always given a step-motherly treatment from the tribunal and central government has a strong case to appeal in supreme court. tamil nadu is not an efficient user of the water resources. Tamilnadu used strong arm tactics to extract a favourable ruling and they got it.
