Bengaluru: In yet another setback to the Karnataka Government, the Cauvery Water Regulation Committee (CWRC) on Wednesday directed the State Government to release 3,000 cusecs of Cauvery water per day to Tamil Nadu from Oct. 16 to 31.
The CWRC meeting, which took place in New Delhi, was attended by senior officials of the Water Resource Departments of both Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. Though the Karnataka officials argued that water cannot be released to TN due to poor monsoon rains, the CWRC did not agree to it and ordered release of water.
