The Congress on Monday set a one-month deadline for the State government to lay the foundation stone for the Mekedatu balancing reservoir project across Cauvery river.
“Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai held the Water Resources portfolio in the past and he is aware of the legalities involved. He has said that Tamil Nadu has no right to object to the project. We have also been telling the same thing,” said KPCC president D.K. Shivakumar. “Why have you not taken any action in this regard? Why are you unable to start the Krishna and Mahadayi projects yet?” he asked.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
