AIADMK’s general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Thursday condemned Karnataka’s Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar over the proposal to construct a dam across the Cauvery at Mekedatu, and issued a “warning” to the Karnataka government that his party would organise protests.
In a statement, he also condemned the DMK government, who he said was “not taking appropriate action and remaining a mute spectator”. He rejected the statement issued by Tamil Nadu’s Water Resources Minister Duraimurugan, and called it an “eye-wash”.
