Former minister HD Revanna was upset that the state government had released 16 TMC of water overnight from the Hemavati reservoir in Hassan without anyone noticing. Speaking in Hassan today, where did he leave the water of Hemavati reservoir? Our farmers used to grow a crop in this water. He expressed great displeasure as to how water was released without holding a meeting of the Irrigation Advisory Committee. If you have decided sitting in Bangalore, how come people here are questioning us if you continue to release water as you know without holding an Irrigation Advisory Committee meeting. Maybe this government will collude with tamil Nadu. He made a serious allegation that he is a partner in the india team, so he is letting water in the wake of the next lok sabha elections.
He continued that because of the lok sabha elections, water has been released to tamil Nadu even though there is no irrigated area and demanded that the chief minister should call an assembly session on this issue immediately. All parties are now saying that they have left tamil Nadu with continuous water. Will they call an all-party meeting and bring back the water left in tamil Nadu? Do they have a water return machine? After leaving the water, he was upset that there was more delegation.
