‘DMK regime in ‘mute’ mode on Mekedatu’
PTI, Mar 20, 2022, 8:29 AM IST
The main opposition in Tamil Nadu AIADMK on Saturday alleged that the DMK regime is ‘mute’ on Mekedatu issue though Karnataka has held an all-party meeting and decided unanimously to build the dam across river Cauvery.
Referring to the meet chaired by Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on March 18 in Bengaluru, AIADMK top leader K Palaniswami said it was unanimously resolved in that meeting to build the Mekedatu dam and also visit Union Water Resources Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat in this regard.
Palaniswami said his party condemned efforts to build the Mekedatu dam. However, the DMK government ‘did not express its opposition’ to the decision taken in the meeting and it is ‘mute’ on the matter and betrayal of the Tamil Nadu people is unacceptable, Palaniswami, leader of the opposition, said.
