Cauvery: SC hearing today

By Our Legal Correspondent

NEW DELHI Sept. 2. The Supreme Court will hear tomorrow the Tamil Nadu Government's plea for a direction to Karnataka to release the Cauvery water as per the interim award of the Cauvery Tribunal.

A three-Judge Bench, comprising the Chief Justice, B.N. Kirpal, K.G. Balakrishnan and Arijit Pasayat, rejected the request of senior counsel for Karnataka for adjourning the hearing by four weeks to enable the Cauvery Monitoring Committee to evolve a ``distress sharing formula'' for sharing the water when there was a shortfall.
