Bengaluru, Aug 19 (SocialNews.XYZ) Karnataka government on Saturday invited Advocate General to the cabinet meeting and held a detailed discussion with him over the order to release water from River Cauvery to Tamil Nadu.
The cabinet directed the Advocate General to file a petition before the Supreme Court questioning the order to release water to Tamil Nadu.
Speaking to reporters at Vidhana Soudha, Minister for Law H.K. Patil said that the petition will be filed on Monday. “I can’t give more information on the issue as the state is approaching the Supreme Court,” he said.
When asked about Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar allegedly concealing the order of the tribunal to release water for a week and BJP announced a protest over the matter, Patil explained that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has already said that he would call for an all party meeting over the issue. Hence, there is no scope for protests.
