“We have only enough water for drinking and for our farmers’ crops. We have clearly informed the Cauvery Authority that there is no water in the dams of the Cauvery Achcuttu area,” said Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar. Answering questions from journalists at Vidhansouda on Tuesday, he said, “We have been writing letters to take an all-party delegation to the Prime Minister’s office regarding the Cauvery water issue.
No response received. We believe that we will get a chance next week,” he said. When asked what is the reason for the BJP’s repeated accusations against you, he said, “They cannot bear the fact that the power has left their hands. Both BJP and JDS are doing unnecessary politics. We do not pay attention to their words. The welfare and development of the state is important to us,” he said.
