The Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA), whose decision to discuss the Mekedatu balancing reservoir-cum-drinking water project attracted opposition from Tamil Nadu, has decided to postpone the meeting that was scheduled for Friday to June 23.
The decision has been taken in the light of the request of the Karnataka government for postponement as the authorities would be busy with the preparations for the proposed visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the State on June 20 and 21, according to Saumitra Kumar Haldar, chairman of the Authority.
