Even as the Cauvery Water Regulation Committee (CWRC) is set to meet on Thursday to take stock of the situation, Tamil Nadu, the principal lower-riparian State, has received over two thousand million cubic feet (tmc ft) more than the quantity stipulated by the CWRC last month.

The data of the Central Water Commission (CWC), which monitors the flow at Biligundulu on the border of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, reveals that during November 1-20, Tamil Nadu received around 7.27 tmc ft, while the CWRC and the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) had recommended 5.17 tmc ft for November 1-23 at the rate of 2,600 cubic feet per second (cusecs).
