Chennai: Responding to the letter of the Minister of Karnataka BS Yediyurappa who was urgent not to oppose the Mekedatu Dam project, Minister of MC K Stalin confirmed that the project opposed the interests of farmers in Tamil Nadu and asked the first to not pursue.
Stalin’s letter on Sunday was also silent at the request by Yeddiyurappa for bilateral talks about this issue – a sign that TN was not interested in the proposal for the conversation.
The view that the Mekedatu Dam will not affect the interests of Tamil Nadu cannot be agreed upon, because it will inhibit the flow of water from the catchment area under Kabini and Krishnarajasagar Dam, Stalin told Yeddiyurappa.
He said the last commandment of the Cauvery water dispute, which was later modified by the Supreme Court, clearly identified three components that contributed to the annual quantum water amount to be sent to TN.
“The proposed Mekedatu Dam will confiscate and divert the first component of an uncontrolled stream to Tamil Nadu, which comes from the downstream catchment area of downstream reservoir and water catchment area under the Dam Krishnarajaah and an uncontrolled flow of the SIMSHA sub-basin, Arkavatahy and Suvernavathy, “said.
