Constitute Mahanadi tribunal: SC
Context
The Supreme Court on Tuesday directed the Centre to set up a tribunal within a month to resolve the long-standing dispute between Odisha and Chhattisgarh over the sharing of Mahanadi water.
Constitute tribunal
- A Bench of Justices S.A. Bobde and L. Nageswara Rao asked the Centre to constitute the tribunal and said that all pending issues can be raised before it
- The court, however, refused to grant any stay as sought by Odisha government on the seven pick up weirs (a low dam built across a river to raise the level of water upstream or regulate its flow) across the Mahanadi river, which flows through Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Odisha, before pouring into the Bay of Bengal.
