Chennai sources have stated that DMK leader M. Karunanidhi on Tuesday has said Chief Minister Jayalalitha should prevail upon the Centre to release at least 50 tmc feet and he has pointed out that the13 tmc feet of Cauvery water likely to be released by Karnataka as per the direction of the Supreme Court was not adequate for cultivation of the samba crop.



He has added that the samba crop would cover 25 lakh acres and would require 200 tmc feet of water and when pointing out that besides holding an all party meeting, the Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had already reacted to the issue at hand by stating that the State did not have water to release to its neighbor.

He was wondering whether the Tamil Nadu government would file a petition in the Supreme Court and press for constitution of the Cauvery Management Board and the Cauvery Water Regulation Committee, Mr. Karunanidhi wanted to know whether the Chief Minister would lead an all party delegation to meet the Prime Minister to put pressure on Karnataka.



Meanwhile the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) leader Thol. Thirumavalavan has also demanded an all party meeting to discuss the serious situation being faced by the delta farmers and the all party meeting which was held by the Karnataka government is a clear indication that it is unlikely to abide by the direction of the Supreme Court.
