Did Tamil Nadu act in haste in taking up the Hogenakal project in the Cauvery basin? Since it is supposed to be only a drinking water scheme, does it hurt Karnataka’s interests? DH had invited readers’ opinion on the issue.
Most believe that although the drinking water provision is legal, the current row is a manifestation of political interests in TN, and that Karnataka has been unfairly targeted. Some feel that as Hogenakal falls within the disputed territory, the problem should be resolved amicably without damaging public life in both states.
