The former Chief Minister and BJP leader Basavaraj Bommai has held the Congress responsible for the delay in the Mahadayi project. He said that the BJP, on the other hand, tried to speed up the project.
He told reporters in Hubballi on Sunday that it was the Manmohan Singh government that constituted the Mahadayi River Water Disputes Tribunal, though there was never a need for it.
“That has caused the delay of around 10 years,” he said. “This has been the biggest mistake of the Congress,” he said.
