The three-decade-old Mahadayi water dispute is in limelight again.
Among the three states involved in the conflict – Goa, Karnataka, and Maharashtra – the first two have hardened their stance in recent months, with their political leaders making some controversial statement or the other.
The three states are locked in a protracted dispute over sharing Mahadayi waters for the last 30 years. Attempts at negotiations among the states were initiated by the central government way back in 1985.
Goa, on Monday Jan 15,2018, filed its arguments before the Mahadayi Water Disputes Tribunal maintaining it could not share water with Karnataka due to diversions of river water violating court orders, and potential damage to marine ecology, environment and wildlife
