In a daring move, the Andhra Pradesh government moved the Supreme Court, seeking to redefine the course of the Brijesh Kumar Tribunal.The AP government filed a petition.
They’re not happy with the decisions made by the central government.The Supreme Court has agreed to hear their request.
The Andhra Pradesh government is very serious about looking out for the state’s interests in a disagreement about the Krishna river’s water.Chief Minister Jagan has said they won’t back down when it comes to protecting the state’s rights.
They’ve also written letters to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, asking for help.This happened after the Central Jal Shakti Department gave out new instructions to the Brijesh Kumar Tribunal.
The Central government has given the Krishna Water Disputes Tribunal-2 (KWDT-2), led by Justice Brijesh Kumar, new rules.These rules are about how the water from the Krishna river should be shared between Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
Adding to the 811 TMC (thousand million cubic feet) that KWDT-1 (the Bachawat Tribunal) said should go to united Andhra Pradesh, the Godavari Tribunal decided that the 45 TMC for united Andhra Pradesh should be divided between the two states based on different projects.
