Mandya, Sep 27: Film star-turned politician Ramya, in her latest Facebook post, has sought to find an answer to the Cauvery water sharing dispute.

The former Mandya MP revealed that she has written a memorandum to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, requesting him for his intervention.

Here is her full post:

We all know by now that the Cauvery dispute is based on a faulty agreement.

There are certain changes and alterations to be made, most importantly on distress sharing- for eg read the Final Order of the Cauvery Water Disputes Tribunal dated 05.02.2007

-If yield of Cauvery basin is less in a distress year, the allocated shares shall be proportionately reduced among the States proportionate sharing does not calculate ground reality. This is what is causing all the problems.

Luckily for us, there is Clause XX

Clause XX of the Cauvery verdict –

Nothing contained herein shall prevent the alteration, amendment or modification of all or any of the foregoing clauses by agreement between the parties.

The Cauvery dispute will continue if we don't make the changes to the agreement, therefore it is imperative that the Prime Minister intervene in this matter, by bringing the Chief Ministers of both the states ('the parties' as in the agreement) of Tamilnadu Dr. J. Jayalalitha and Karnataka Shri. Siddaramiah together and put an end to the Cauvery dispute.

They can once and for all come up with a distress sharing formula that is agreeable to both. (The Chief Minister of Karnataka has written a letter to Shri. Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India but he has not responded as yet.)

I have written a memorandum to the Prime Minister requesting him for his valuable time and intervention, attached below.

What should you do? The one reading this- I request you all to please take a copy of this memorandum to your respective MP's in Karnataka and get their signatures.

You may then please upload a picture of the same with the MP and their signature on the memorandum on your social media profile #togetherforcauvery

Do email us a copy [email protected] will collate and put them together for submission before the Honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri. Narendra Modi.

If we all come together as people, setting aside our political differences for the sake of the people of Karnataka and Cauvery, we can make this happen- Imagine no more fighting over Cauvery-a 124 year old dispute can end!!

We can celebrate 125th year as an end to the dispute. Get started on those signatures.

New Delhi, Mar 20: An official of South Western Railway has been suspended for "hiding" her son, who returned from Germany and later tested positive for coronavirus.

The youth has been hiding at a railway guest house in Bengaluru, officials said on Friday.

"She (the railway official) not only failed to inform authorities about her son's return from Germany, but also endangered the lives of others by lodging him in a railway rest house near the main Bangalore railway station," railway spokesperson E Vijaya said.

The Assistant Personnel Officer (Traffic) has been suspended, Vijaya said.

The 25-year-old man, who came from Germany via Spain and was instructed to be in home quarantine after he landed at the Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru on March 13, later tested positive for Covid-19 on March 18.

"She virtually hid her son to protect her family but endangered all of us," a South Western Railway official said.

New Delhi, Feb 2: Budget 2020 announcement that insurance behemoth LIC will be listed was well received by market participants who said this will be "IPO of the decade" akin to the Saudi Aramco listing.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Saturday said Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) will be listed as part of the government disinvestment initiative.

A "highlight of the budget is the LIC IPO, which is akin to the Saudi Aramco listing for Indian capital markets, and will be IPO of the decade," Vijay Bhushan, President, Association of National Exchanges Members of India (ANMI) said.

According to Krishna Kumar Karwa, Managing Director, Emkay Global Financial Services, the LIC IPO will be a big positive for corporate governance and transparency and will open up one more avenue for fund raising for the government over the years.

Metropolitan Stock Exchange, Interim CEO, Balu Nair said: "The LIC listing will be eagerly awaited by investors and will provide huge fillip to capital raising through the primary market." The government proposes to sell a part of its holding in LIC through an initial public offer, Sitharaman said while presenting Budget 2020-21.

"The government will sell part of LIC through its listing in the stock market which is also a positive trigger for the market," Amit Gupta, CO-Founder and CEO, TradingBells.

Jaideep Hansraj, MD and CEO of Kotak Securities said listing of LIC would help bridge a gap in the Fiscal Deficit for FY21.

Currently, the government owns the entire 100 per cent stake in LIC.

Saudi Aramco shares were listed in December last year.
