Mahadayi Tribunal

The Mahadayi Water Disputes Tribunal established to address water-sharing disputes between Karnataka, Goa and Maharashtra has been granted one-year extension to submit its report and decision.

The Congress has asked the BJP- led government in Goa to challenge in the Supreme Court a tribual's verdict on sharing the Mahadayi river water with neighbouring states.

The Goa government has decided to move the Mahadayi Water Dispute Tribunal against Karnataka's alleged act of diverting the Mahadayi river water to its Malaprabha basin, a minister said today.

Seeking an early resolution to the nearly four-decade-old Mahadayi water sharing dispute, the Karnataka government has said it's opposed to any more extensions to the central tribunal that's looking into the issue. In an election year, the state has already seen protests by pro-Kannada groups and farmer groups demanding a solution at the earliest. ...

Calling it a demand of the people of Karnataka, the state government today said that the tribunal formed by the central government to solve the Mahadayi water sharing dispute should settle the issue by August 20.

The Karnataka government would consult legal experts and decide on August 16 whether to approach the Supreme Court on the rejection of its interim plea by a tribunal on sharing of the Mahadayi river water, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said on Sunday.

Karnataka Home Minister G. Parameshwara on Sunday apologised for the alleged police brutality on women in Dharwad district during the state-wide shutdown against an inter-state tribunal's verdict on sharing of Mahadayi river, which went against the state.

Protests continue in north Karnataka following Mahadayi Tribunal's decision not to divert its water in the area.

The Supreme Court today took offense to the fact that retired judges, who are currently members of a tribunal, have not been given government accommodation in Delhi.
