CM Edappadi K Palaniswami discusses legal move over TN plea in Supreme Court

Chief Minister K Palaniswami on Saturday discussed with his cabinet colleagues the next legal steps over Tamil Nadu’s plea in the Supreme Court seeking contempt action against the Centre for not constituting the Cauvery Management Board within the stipulated period of six weeks.

Tamil Nadu moved the contempt plea in the apex court on March 31, seeking action against the Centre for allegedly failing to form the CMB and the Cauvery Water Regulation Committee.

In the plea, Tamil Nadu has said the central government was bound to give effect to the judgement by framing a scheme top put in place the CMB and the CWRC within six weeks.
