Description
Description | The Kalasa-Banduri drinking water project is a major lifeline for north Karnataka districts, aimed at providing drinking water to Dharwad, Belagavi, Bagalkote, and Gadag districts. Despite the 2018 Mahadayi Water Disputes Tribunal award allocating water for these districts, the project faces legal and bureaucratic hurdles, primarily due to Goa's objections related to forest clearance and environmental concerns. The project has been delayed for over four decades, with the final roadblock being the forest department's clearance. |
