Bengaluru, Dec 18: Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Wednesday said the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) would be implemented in Karnataka.

His comments came at a time when several states, like West Bengal and Punjab, are refusing to implement the amended law amid protests against it.

"We will implement the Citizenship Amendment Act in Karnataka," Yediyurappa told reporters here.

The Chief Minister also said that his government had no plans to change the name of the Indira canteens in the state, amidst rumours that it was planning to rename them to 'Maharshi Valmiki Anna Kutira'.

The Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 seeks to grant Indian citizenship to refugees from Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi communities fleeing religious persecution from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh, and who entered India on or before December 31, 2014.

Bengaluru, May 3: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa requested his Maharashtra counterpart Uddhav Thackeray to release six TMC water from his state's reservoirs to rivers in Karnataka to meet acute drinking water shortage in North Karnataka.

Yediyurappa pointed out that the North Karnataka districts, namely Belagavi, Vijayapura, Bagalkot, Kalaburagi, Yadagiri and Raichur are facing acute shortage of drinking water due to onset of summer during early days of March this year.

"I request you to kindly direct the concerned authorities to release 3 TMC of water from Warna/Koyna reservoirs to Krishna river and 3 TMC of water from Ujjaini reservoir to Bhima river on humanitarian grounds for drinking purpose," Yediyurappa said in his letter.

He reminded Thackeray that even in the past the Maharashtra government had released water from its reservoirs to meet the drinking water needs of both human beings and livestock in drought-affected areas of Karnataka.
