Team Udayavani, Dec 26, 2017, 1:56 PM IST
Hubbali: Chief Minister of Karnataka, Siddaramaiah restated that Prime Minister Narendra Modi must intervene and resolve the Mahadayi river water sharing dispute between Karnataka and Goa,when addressing the reporters in Hubbali, on Tuesday.
Siddaramaiah again expressed his displeasure over the fact that Chief Minister of Goa Manohar Parrikar had written to Karnataka BJP President B S Yeddyurappa instead of him and that he was willing to hold talks with BSY and not to him. “As Parrikar has written to BSY and not me, the letter has no legal value. Both Goa and Centre are enacting a political drama,” Siddaramaiah added.
Reacting strongly to BSY’s remarks regarding dissolving the Assembly and declaring elections, Siddaramaiah asked,”Is Yeddyurappa the election commissioner? People have given us a mandate for five years. Let BJP meet us in May during the polls,”
Kalasa-Banduri Raitha Horata Samiti has called a bundh in four districts protesting the delay of the two state governments in resolving the issue and the nonchalance of the Centre for the deadlock.The bundh has been called in Belagavi, Dharwad, Gadag and Bagalkot districts on December 27 from 6 am to 6 pm. If the bundh fails to induce the government to act, a dharna would be held in front of the parliamentarians of the region, Samiti leaders informed.
