Malappuram, Apr 20: The Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) is contesting the Lok Sabha election in different parts of the country only to prevent the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) from returning to power, SDPI president M K Faizi has said.

Mr. Faizi said that his party was not contesting in places where the BJP was likely to come in the second position.

Addressing a ‘meet-the-leader’ programme organised by Malappuram Press Club here on Friday, Mr. Faizi said the Congress had failed to form a broad front against fascism at national level.

He said the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) too had failed to handle properly the minority issues in the country.

He said the propaganda that IUML general secretary P K Kunhalikutty had united the opposition parties in the triple talaq issue was baseless.

He said if the mainstream parties were genuine in their stand against fascism, they should collaborate to prevent a possible victory of the BJP in Thiruvananthapuram and Pathanamthitta.

Feb 26: The Tamil Nadu government on Tuesday claimed that it prevented Karnataka from discussing the contentious Mekedatu reservoir issue at the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) meeting held in New Delhi.

Besides the representatives of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka at the fifth meeting of CWMA, presided over by Central Water Commission Chairman R K Jain, officials of Kerala and Puducherry also participated.

CWMA member and TN PWD Secretary K Manivasan told reporters after the meeting that the state government prevented Karnataka from discussing the dam issue by pointing out the pending petitions in the Supreme Court against the project filed by the E Palaniswami government.

"We have told participants of the meeting that Mekedatu reservoir will be against the interests of Tamil Nadu and its farmers. Our consistent stand is that it should not be built at any cost. Finally the issue was not discussed in the meeting," Manivasan said.

The Mekedatu reservoir is proposed to be constructed by Karnataka across Cauvery river near Mekedatu, about 110 km from Bengaluru, in Kanakapura taluk.

It was first proposed along with Shivanasamudra hydro power project at Shimsa in 2003 with an intention to use the water for a hydro power station and supply drinking water to Bengaluru city. It was designed to store 67 tmc feet of water.

While Tamil Nadu is claiming that the construction of a balancing reservoir will disturb Cauvery water flow to the state affecting irrigation, Karnataka says the project is basically designed to take care of the drinking water needs of Bengaluru after releasing water to Tamil Nadu as per the quantum specified by the Cauvery water disputes tribunal.
