Prior to this announcement of all party meetings, CM Bommai clenched a brief dialogue with members of the legal team representing the state in the supreme court, Advocate General, and Senior officials of the law and Water resource department. Bommai discussed pending cases in the supreme court with respect to Krishna, Cauvery, and Mahadayi predictions.
In preparation for the all-party meeting in February, CM Bommai said he would call for a video conference with the state’s legal committee and irrigation team to have a better and more in-depth understanding in January end. With all the necessary precautions and preparation, we will host the all-party meeting which consists of leaders of political parties belonging to both the houses of Legislature.
