The Karnataka legislature has reiterated the state's stand that the border issue is a settled one, and not an inch of land will be given to Maharashtra.
Amid the simmering border dispute, Maharashtra minister Shambhuraj Desai on Wednesday said if Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai does not stop making irresponsible statements, Maharashtra will have to rethink about water supply from its dams to the neighbouring state.
The Maharashtra government last month appointed cabinet members Chandrakant Patil and Shambhuraj Desai as nodal ministers to coordinate with the legal team regarding a court case on the state's border dispute with Karnataka.
Addressing reporters in the Vidhan Bhavan complex in Nagpur, Mr Desai slammed Mr Bommai over the Karnataka government's stand that not an inch of land will be given to Maharashtra.
