Bengaluru: Karnataka Minister Priyank Kharge on Friday asserted that the state will proceed with the Mekedatu project in accordance with Supreme Court directions, dismissing the opposition from Tamil Nadu Congress president B Manickam Tagore as a matter of "personal opinion".
Kharge's remarks come in response to the Tamil Nadu Congress Committee's (TNCC) staunch opposition to the proposed Mekedatu balancing reservoir across the Cauvery River.
