Karnataka bears no hatred towards the people of Tamil Nadu, Deputy Chief Minister and Minister for Major and Medium Irrigation D.K. Shivakumar said on Thursday and added that the people of Tamil Nadu should be “warm-hearted” on the issue of Mekedatu drinking water project.
“Tamil Nadu will not face any problem because of the Mekedatu project. We have no hatred towards Tamil Nadu, nor do we have any intention of picking up a fight,” Mr. Shivakumar told reporters here. “Enough of running around the courts. We should cordially cooperate to implement the project that will help solve the drinking water problem in Karnataka and benefit farmers in Tamil Nadu.”
