A bus from Karnataka was vandalised by Naam Tamilar Katchi party workers in Rameswaram in Tamil Nadu on Monday. The driver too was threatened.

The incident a continuation of the violence since the Karnataka Bandh over the Cauvery dispute. A Karnataka-based New Woodlands Hotel in Chennai's Mylapore area was also attacked with petrol bomb early on Monday.

The incident comes a day after a video of a group of boys in Karnataka assaulting a Tamil Nadu youth went viral on social media. "Unknown people hurled a petrol bomb at New Woodlands Hotel in Mylapore in early morning hours," reported ANI.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Court will hear Karnataka's plea seeking a direction to restrict the quantum of water to be released from River Cauvery to Tamil Nadu, from 15,000 cusecs to 1,000 cusecs.

The application has also sought that instead of 10 days, the apex court should restrict the release of water to only six as the state itself was facing a situation of distress due to a massive agitation which was causing a loss of Rs. 500 crore per day to Karnataka.
