Karnataka's move comes after Maharashtra appointed two ministers to coordinate with a legal team regarding the court case on the border dispute.
Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai has said his government has made all preparations to pursue the legal battle over its boundary dispute with Maharashtra in the Supreme Court.
The development comes after the Eknath Shinde government in Maharashtra appointed ministers Chandrakant Patil and Shambhuraj Desai to coordinate with a legal team regarding the court case on the issue.
Mr Bommai told reporters on Monday that the state has formed a team of senior advocates to fight the case in the Supreme Court when it comes up for hearing.
The team, according to Mr Bommai, will have former attorney general Mukul Rohatgi, Shyam Diwan, former Karnataka advocate general Uday Holla and Maruti Jirale.
