  "summary": "The Tamil Nadu government has moved the Supreme Court seeking a direction to Karnataka to release 3,500 cusecs of water from its reservoirs at Kabini and Krishna Raja Sagara for 15 days, to ensure compliance with the Central Water Management Authority (CWMA) decision of July 30. This move comes as Karnataka Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar stated that the water situation has improved, urging Kannada organizations to withdraw their State-wide bandh plan on August 13. Tamil Nadu's application to the Supreme Court seeks the CWMA to direct Karnataka to release the stipulated water on a pro-rata basis from June 1 to August 12, totaling 26.954 TMC, and to monitor the flows in Karnataka's reservoirs every 10 days.",
