Asks Prime Minister Narendra Modi to increase allocation from 15.891 tmcft to 25 tmcft

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @Bengaluru

FORMER prime minister HD Deve Gowda asserted here on Saturday that Karnataka should receive 25 tmcft of water under the Godavari-Krishna-Cauvery irrigation project. He pledged to fight for this cause alongside all political parties.

He expressed his displeasure over the allocation of 15.891 tmcft of water out of 147/932 tmcft assessed as available for diversion as against the allocation for Tamil Nadu (40.930 TMCft). He said he will soon write to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, asking him to direct the National Water Development Agency (NWDA) to set right the injustice meted out to Karnataka.

"I have asked in Parliament how 15.891 tmcft of water from Godavari river will be diverted to Ghataprabha river. How is this feasible? Where exactly will Godavari be linked to Cauvery river? The project details are unclear, and Karnataka deserves accurate information. I will write to the PM on this," he told the media.
