Conflicted water issues with Maharashtra cannot be negotiated in exchange of votes: Siddaramaiah
Bengaluru: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Friday condemned the statement of CM Yediyurappa wherein he added that Karnataka will resolve conflicted water issues with Maharashtra if the people of Maharashtra vote for BJP in assembly elections.
Siddaramaiah added that the conflicted water issue between the two states is not something to be negotiated in exchange of votes during assembly elections.
Further writing about the issue on his official twitter handle Siddaramaiah added that ‘the reality is different than what is being shown’.
ಎರಡು ರಾಜ್ಯಗಳ ನಡುವಿನ ನೀರಿನ ಹಂಚಿಕೆಗೆ ಸಂಬಂಧಿಸಿದ ವಿಚಾರಗಳು ಮಾತುಕತೆಯಾಗದೆ ನೀರು ಹರಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ ಎನ್ನುವುದು ಕೇವಲ ಮತಗಳಿಕೆಗೆ ಸೀಮಿತವಾದ ಹೇಳಿಕೆಯಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಮಹಾರಾಷ್ಟ್ರದ ಜನ ತಮ್ಮ ಪಕ್ಷಕ್ಕೆ ಮತ ನೀಡಲಿ ಎಂದು ಯಡಿಯೂರಪ್ಪನವರು ಹಾಗೆ ಹೇಳಿರಬಹುದು. ಆದರೆ ವಾಸ್ತವ ಚಿತ್ರಣವೇ ಬೇರೆಯಿದೆ.
