Chennai: The Tamil Nadu government yesterday turned down the Karnataka government’s offer for talks on the contentious proposal for a dam project across the Cauvery at Mekedatu, citing the proceedings in the Supreme Court over the issue and contending that it was sub judice.
Tamil Nadu Law Minister C.V. Shanmugam said this in response to the recent letter written by Karnataka’s Water Resources Minister D.K. Shivakumar, who sought an appointment with TN CM Edappadi K. Palaniswami to discuss the proposed project.
