Cauvery dispute: Karnataka minister Priyank Kharge urges Centre to simplify drought management guidelines

Our stance on Cauvery water is clear. We can only give water to our people, but the Chief Minister has also asked for cooperation. In the wake of the Prime Minister's arrival, the Chief Minister will personally appeal. Prahlad Joshi does not protect the interests of the state; he only speaks against the Chief Minister and us, Kharge said.
