Yes It's a long strangle with Karnataka, we have water for our lives.
I tried not know much of the East India Company to build a dam across the Cauvery at Mettur, but the matter was awaiting their executions for many years.
The draining of the river of Kodagu in Karnataka and in large parts of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. Attempts have been made for the British to build a dam to lose water to disperse, but the plan will not be realized. An attempt was made to use its waters for irrigation in 1883, when the Diwan of the Mysore Principality plan. The main objective was the revenue into the coffers of the king increased. The decision of the sofa was no trace of the Madras Presidency under the British Raj. Thus began tKaveri dispute remains unclear.
In contrast, the state of Mysore, began in the late use of irrigation. It's a different story, which arise as a pioneer would hydropower. Mysore ran several projects of the rivers in the 19th Century
The Madras Presidency and he made the two countries negotiated an agreement that began in 1892 in Mysore, the prior consent of the Government of Madras, before the construction of new dams for irrigation in any part of 15 major rivers, including the Cauvery and its tributaries. However, there was consolation in Mysore to Madras Government was not required to withhold such consent, except to protect the right recipe and others have already acquired under the conditions of 1892, aAGREEMENT.
Cauvery row had a break after two rounds of talks between the State of Mysore and the Madras Presidency in 1892 and 1924. Mysore has been to build a dam in the village Kannambadi seize 44.8 billion cubic meters of water. Madras appropriate for itself the right to confiscate a dam in Mettur in the district of Madras Selam 93,5 m TMC had to build so-called normative rights in the upstream state of Mysore.
Karnataka against the spirit of the agreement by the tank and use river water to irrigate their expanding far beyond its rights, and causes damage to the irrigation in Tamil Nadu set up. We seek a direction of Karnataka, as it flows under previous agreements and to comply with releaseby the provisions of the Agreement of 1924.
The Mettur Dam-designed project, which was the livelihood of Tamil Nadu, in 1910, and gave Colonel Ellis Cup for the execution. The first explosion can take place, July 20, 1925, and after nine years of uninterrupted work, which was commissioned in August 21, 1934, and the Stanley reservoir went into operation. And the dam Mettur dam are now as majestically on the river Kaveri for 75 eventful years, is all set to celebrate its Platinum Jubilee .-
