Cauvery water dispute
There is a serious controversy in the states of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka over the sharing of the waters of the Cauvery River. The dispute has its roots in two agreements between the erstwhile Madras Presidency and the State of Mysore in 1892 and 1926.
Answer:
Inter-state water disputes are disagreements on the sharing of water and other resources of rivers and other water bodies between two state governments. They arise due to unresolved problems regarding sharing of the costs and benefits of multi-purpose projects on these rivers. Examples of such disputes are (i) The Kaveri River Water dispute between Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala and Puducherry. (ii) The Krishna-Godavari Water dispute between Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. (iii) The Ravi-Beas Rivers Water dispute between Punjab and Haryana. (iv) The Yamuna River Water dispute between Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
