Mysore/Mysuru: Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha (KRRS) President Badagalapura Nagendra said that the KRRS will stage a stir in all district centres of the State on Sept. 5 to urge the Government for declaring the State as ‘Drought hit’ and to seek fulfillment of long pending farmer demands.
Addressing a press meet here yesterday, Nagendra urged the Government to immediately stop release of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu. Asking the State Government to file a review petition before the Supreme Court against the Cauvery Water Management Authority’s ruling over water release, he urged the Centre to intervene for finding a long lasting solution to the raging row. “The State Government should petition the SC seeking a water sharing formula during crisis as part of resolving the row”, he said.
