T.N. farmers are cheated whenever Congress is in power in Karnataka: Nagenthran
Hitting back at TNCC chief’s remarks on the Cauvery water dispute, he asks Tagore to question his party’s government over not releasing water to T.N. despite a direction from the CWMA
Nagenthran, the BJP State president, strongly criticized the Congress-led Karnataka government, alleging that Tamil Nadu farmers have been consistently cheated whenever the Congress party held power in Karnataka. He dismissed the claims made by Tamil Nadu Congress Committee president B. Manickam Tagore regarding the Cauvery water dispute, asserting that the issue was not new and had occurred under the BJP-led Union government in 2018.
Nagenthran pointed out that the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) was established during the Modi government, but the Congress government in Karnataka failed to comply with its directives and release water to Tamil Nadu. He further questioned Tagore about Rahul Gandhi's apparent silence on the matter, considering that the Congress leader was currently visiting Tamil Nadu.
