Tamil Nadu Energy and Law Minister CTR Nirmal Kumar on Sunday rejected the demand for an all-party meeting made by various political parties in the state to discuss the ongoing Cauvery water row with Karnataka.
He said a detailed resolution was already passed unanimously in the Assembly with the support and participation of all political parties. The DMK, AIADMK, PMK and VCK have demanded for an all-party meeting.
He questioned why the DMK had “hastily” moved the Supreme Court to ensure that Karnataka releases water to Tamil Nadu, and alleged that CM DK Shivakumar and DMK President MK Stalin were colluding to undermine Tamil Nadu’s interests.
