Mangaluru, Sep 21: Expressing concern over Prime Minister Narnendra Modi's reluctance to intervene in Cauvery river water dispute, Congress leader UT Khader has reminded him that Karnataka is an integral part of India and not Balochistan.
Mr Khader, who is also the minister for food and civil supplies and consumer affairs in Karnataka, said: Mr Modi has so much of concern over the developments in Balochistan, but is least bothered about the injustice that Karnataka is facing on this vital issue. “Is Balochistan more important for you than Karnataka,” Mr Khader questioned.
In a press communique issued on Tuesday in the aftermath of the Supreme Court verdict, mr Khader said the verdict of the apex court is unfortunate. The Supreme Court directed the state to release 6,000 cusecs of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu for seven days starting September 21.
"Karnataka is facing repeated injustice on the issue and the dispute between the two states has not yet been comprehensively resolved," Khader said.
The direction to set up Cauvery Management Board is truly surprising, Khader said adding this has only further complicated the issue between the neighbouring states rather than solve it. "The Supreme Court has only given its judgement on the Cauvery water issue but not provided justice," Mr Khader said, adding that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has been trying to draw attention of the PM to this issue for the past one week, without success.
With the PMO still not giving Siddaramaiah an appointment, this is a gross affront to people of the state, he said adding that PM Modi rather than solve a tricky water sharing issue between two states is showing overt concern to the Balochistan issue.
"It is time for all the members of parliament to collectively meet the Prime Minister and bring pressure on him to intervene in the issue and provide justice to the state," Mr Khader demanded.

Balochistan may be important for him, may be next he will run for UN Gen. Secretary's post.
Another important thing from his speech, \When terrorists killed school children in Balochistan, Hindustan, Parliament had tears. Every Indian school was in tears.\"
But, what happened to his \"Tears\" when Gujarat terror happened?? when unborn babies are killed in mother's wombs????"

Modi has no time to meet Siddarammayya to discss Kavery issue, but he has plenty of time to turn his flight to Pakistan and to eat biriyani with Nawaz Shareef.

great Mouni Baba. never we seen such Mouni baba in Indian History. Manege Maari Pararige Upakaari
He may not go against the Supreme court... but... ahem...ahem...What about Yettinahole Sir?
Good points by Mr Prajwal. These days all bachchalis pose questions to Modiji just to get publicity. That's the power of 'NaMo Naamochchara'
Mr Khader!
You know that Karnataka is integral part of India. But, Modiji knows that both Karnataka and Tamil Nadu are integral parts of India. Where were you when Manmohan Singh was India's PM? Did he intervene in Cauvery row? Did he help Kannadigas?
for Karnataka people, Karnataka is more important than India....For Modi Baluch is more important than India....shame....
Delhi
Karnataka
and those states who doesnt bow down to cheddis will face injustice ...
But dont worry Truth will prevail even if the evil cheddis play many deception (temporary enjoyment for cheddis) to fool the public with fake IT cell of cheddis.
