The Cauvery Monitoring
Committee on nov 15,2012 Thursday directed Karnataka to release 4.8 tmc of water to
Tamil Nadu over the next fortnight even as it refused to get into the
issue of settling previous shortfall raised by the latter.
The CMC, Headed by D.V. Singh, Secretary Water Resources, said Karnataka will have to release 4.8 thousand million cubic feet of water between November 16 and 30,2012.
In a written submission, Tamil Nadu had on November 2 demanded that its shortfall of 52.5 tmc during the just-concluded South-West monsoon season be settled by the panel. On Supreme Court orders, the CMC had asked Tamil Nadu to make a written submission before the panel by November 2 on issues it wants to b addressed.
