Will definitely stop Karnataka from building Mekedatu dam: Stalin

Chief Minister MK Stalin, on Monday, asserted that Tamil Nadu will “definitely stop” the desperate Karnataka from constructing the Mekedatu dam even as the State Assembly unanimously passed a resolution condemning the Karnataka government for allotting funds for the dam despite Supreme Court’s verdict. The resolution urged the Union government not to provide technical and environmental support for the project.

Water Resources Minister Duraimurugan, introducing the resolution, urged the Centre to advise Karnataka not to construct the Mekedatu dam or any other dam across the Cauvery without the consent of the states concerned. He asked Cauvery Water Management Authority not to consider the Detailed Project Report prepared by Karnataka.
