State president of Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha Kodihalli Chandrashekar has urged the State government to stop the release of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu and face the issue legally.
Addressing a press conference here on Saturday, Mr.Chandrashekar said that the Prime Minister will intervene only when a constitutional crisis arises. He alleged that some political parties are behaving very irresponsibly regarding the Cauvery issue.
He said that the farmers of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu can solve the issue without the interference of political parties. But parties are politicising the issue to gain mileage.
