No need of Tamil Nadu's approval for Mekedatu Project: Siddaramaiah
Bengaluru: Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy today convened a meeting of all former Chief Ministers and former Water Resources Ministers and law experts regarding state irrigation projects.
Speaking in the meeting, former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said that the Mekedatu project was an ambitious project of the previous government. Tamil Nadu has no problem with this project. In spite of that, TN government is raising objections with political intention.
"There is no obstacle to take up the project in our area. Orders of the Supreme Court and Justice Council orders are also in our favour. No order has told not to take up the project. Hence, we do not even need Tamil Nadu's approval for the project," he said.
Former Chief Minister Jagadish Shettar, former Irrigation Ministers HK Patil, KS Eshwarappa, Basavaraja Bommai, Allam Veerabhadrappa, Ministers DK Shivakumar, RV Deshpande, DC Thammanna, Shivashankar Reddy, Ramesh Jarkihole, Managuli, Nadgowda, Sivananda Patil, Putta Rangashetty, River Water Commission Chairman Justice KL Manjunath, Chief Minister's Economic Advisor Subramanya, Delhi representative Altaf and others were present.
