Cauvery: SC slams Centre’s inaction

 What has happened?

The Supreme Court on Monday rapped the Centre for not framing a water-sharing scheme for the Cauvery and ordered it to prove its “bona fides” by submitting a draft scheme by May 3

 Background: The court was primarily hearing a contempt petition filed by Tamil Nadu against the Centre

 SC observed

Centre didn’t show resolve: Government is bound by court’s decree so it is obliged to frame the scheme but it didn’t show any resolve
