CM leaves today for Cauvery talks

By Our Special Correspondent

CHENNAI, OCT. 8. The Chief Minister, Mr. O. Paneerselvam, will leave for Delhi tomorrow to attend a meeting of the Cauvery River Water Authority convened by the Prime Minister for October 10.

It will be Mr. Paneerselvam's first trip to Delhi after he assumed charge as Chief Minister. The meeting of the Authority was earlier scheduled for September 22, but was put off following the sudden change of guard in the State.

The Chief Minister told the media here that he would impress upon the Authority to ask Karnataka to release Tamil Nadu's share of water since June, as per the Cauvery Tribunal's interim award.
