Only the Bharatiya Janata Party was indulging in politics over the Cauvery river water dispute between Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, and the Congress had always been supportive of Tamil Nadu, said Tamil Nadu Congress Committee president K.S. Alagiri here on Thursday.
Speaking to reporters here, he said there could not be any doubt about the intentions of the Congress in the issue. “It is our right and the delta region has to have its share of water for irrigation,” he added.
The BJP had been irresponsible, while in power in Karnataka and now as well. Like its national leaders, the functionaries in Karnataka too were not bothered about the withering crops in the delta region of Tamil Nadu, he said.
