Cauvery River Water Sharing Dispute - Supreme Court of India(SCI) modifies Cauvery order, gives relief to Karnataka over water row with TN Monday Sep 12,2016

The Supreme Court of India(SCI) reduced on Monday Sep 12,2016 the quantum of Cauvery water to be released by Karnataka after an emergency petition by the state and violent protests paralyzing life in southern India.


The SCI modified a September 05,2016 order and asked Karnataka to release 12,000 cusecs water to Tamil Nadu per day till September 20,2016

 The earlier order asked for 15,000 cusecs to be released daily for 10 days.

The decision came on a plea by Karnataka that said the state government was facing “huge public pressure” and police prevented attempts to damage public property during recent statewide strikes with great difficulty.
