"I implore tamil Nadu's chief minister to intervene promptly in the Cauvery water dispute and exert the required pressure on the central government to ensure that the karnataka government pays tamil Nadu for the water it owes," OPS added. Regarding this he issued a press statement which reads, "In order to carry out farming production in the Cauvery Delta, which is tamil Nadu's rice bowl, the scenario has altered to the point that we are required to seek for our portion of Cauvery River water, to go to justice and obtain an order, and not only that, but also to execute the order."


Due to the fact that 85 percent of the canal irrigated areas rely on Cauvery water, the lifeblood of tamil Nadu, and tamil Nadu's entitlement to use Cauvery water, former chief minister Jayalalithaa released the final ruling of the Cauvery Arbitral Tribunal in the Central Gazette after a huge court battle. Following that, the supreme court somewhat changed the Cauvery Arbitral Tribunal's final order.


The Cauvery Water Management Authority and the Cauvery River Regulatory Commission were established as a result. The Cauvery Water Management Authority's major role, with the help of the Cauvery River Water Regulatory Commission, is to monitor the availability, distribution, regulation, and control of Cauvery water, as well as to carry out the supreme Court's verdict. It is inexcusable that karnataka and tamil Nadu have remained silent on the demand for water more than 15 days following the Cauvery Water Management Authority's decision. The karnataka government's silence is a clear violation of the supreme Court's ruling. As a result, delta farmers find themselves in a dangerous position.
