I am a Kannadiga and this problem arises every couple of years and i see no viable solution for this, The government don't wanna give away water but the high court's orders has to be followed...and people protest against the government.
Mainly this problem comes up due to the problem of lack of monsoon rains and during drought the two states should share the problem together but Tamil Nadu is not agreeing to this since before! Their main argument is that whether it rains or not, we need a normal share
Our government is only concentrating on business and economy so , they are not at all concerned about our farmers, besides we only don't have water then from where we will provide water to other states.
@@dontbeafraidimhere5421bro u don't know the reality... it's a proportional share.. as per the cauvery management committee states are supposed to share water by percentage not a fixed TMc
Doesn't really apply here. It was the Indian government which proposed language based state division and that's why the projects started in 1924 ended up being in two different states.
@@hittingyouoverthehead well we Indians have heavy language pride so it was a very smart initiative by the govt to divide based on language. Yk what happened in East Pakistan don't you?
@@purujitparashar4642 I didn't question the decision to divide by language. I'm saying the OP's comment about Englishman making everyone fight doesn't work here. It's usually said in the context of them drawing borders and mostly international borders.
As Kannadiga from north it doesn't bother me Krishna Basin covers 70% of Karnataka. Bengaluru is dependent on Kaveri only solution for it's drinking water problem is ofcourse Rain Water Harvesting, and also they should develop some other city in Karnataka to so the burden for Bengaluru is reduced. Which I don't think any current party is thinking to do
Congress State Govt are wasting public money in giving freebies. Instead of investing in Doubling Railway Lines in Karnataka and Constructing Dedicated Freight Corridors, Constructing Many Ports in Karnataka and Constructring Wide Roads in Karnataka. Also Karnataka Govt is not focusing in Developing North Bangalore and Tumkur City. Tier 2 Cities Infrastructure like Mangalore, Udupi, Hassan, Mysore, Hubbali, Tumkur, Davanagere also need immediate push.
Man I was in Bangalore few weeks ago and banglore is indeed very overburden as it is now if there were 2 or 3 other cities to share the burden it would vastly help you guys
People like you are problem. It is not only Bengaluru depends on Kaveri, but alao farmers of south karnataka. Devegowda fought for Krishna water, but nort people dont support south when kaveri crisis comes.
please address another important issue of drinking water crisis in Bangalore and other South Karnataka cities it is not only the farmers but also the common middle class dependent for drinking water
The solution is simple, all these big cities and states should force the companies which are not into manufacturing and where workforce can be work from home, should be work from home. As this country has a massive population and suddenly the establishment of private sector forces the majority to live in a few selected cities and states. Which is actually not only exhausting for natural resources but also for a lot of things. Work from home should be given across Bharat.
Hi Veera, I want you to ask this question to your govt your telling water scarcity in cities but the packaged drinking water is sold everywhere without shortage?? Think about it
@@shravan97 work from home doesn't decrease water supply usage. It would save electricity and other few resources. Most of the companies in bengaluru are private sector with non-manufacturing background but they also have assets like buildings so it is a loss if they keep it close and it will hamper their effeciency too. So rather they would sell it or rent it out increasing water usage. SO by my thinking work from home doesn't help

One more point to note here is, TN doens't have any other perinial river within itself. It has always depended on upper state for water. Also TN's geography doesn't suite it to build a bigger dams like KN.
Tamil Nadu can take more water from the Mullaperiyar dam in Kerala which is in danger...thus get more water and save our lives. I wonder why TN does not take that measure
It's very hard to construct a dam in flat surface land 😂😂😂. Supreme court said share the water but kannada people say we will not give "single drop of water' 😂😂😂. Different between illiterate who protest on road and who went to court 😅

@@nandanhegde8784 already the agreement was not followed by Karnataka. If they construct new dam in megadatu again it's problem for Tamilnadu. This what TN politicians says.
This is an incomplete analysis. First the British didn't favour Madras Presidency, They calculated the river flow length. A river is called a river from origin till sea point. Based on that the share was given. This point you didn't and blindly said British favourrd. If karnataka wants the claim of cauvery, please take it. Don't send one drop of water. Ok agreed ?. But please don't send water when there is a high rain fall. So you don't want cauvery in tamil nadu when water shortage and need cauvery in tamil nadu when more rain fall. This suits the best definition of hypocrisy. Second, Banglore didn't have water shortage bcoz of cauvery water sent to TN. Even if you have all water and if for one day the lorrey drivers goes to protest, banglore will have shortage. What does TN do here. Without a limit you allowed people bcoz you get tax and revenue and economy, this eventually dried the underground water level. So the correct problem is how will banglore make water level higher. Since ages, People only near the river consumr water from river. Nobody in Chennai or kanyakumari is using cauvery water. It is only the Delta region. Why does banglore depend on cauvery water which is atleast 100 Km away from nearest cauvery?? Banglore guys didn't do water management, and allowed people without planning, and blame Tamil nadu for your water shortage. I'm in chennai, when I switch on the motor, I get water. Why banglore people switch on the motor, there is no water?? This is the real point to be discussed which surprisingly missed here in this analysis.
I have mentioned correct data which Ed he made it wrong in my comment in this video… I too blindly followed his few previous videos but here it’s wrong data
I am living in Bangalore from more than 15 years and I have seen the bundh, strike regarding this cauvery issue between the states... But for the first time I got to know the the real reason behind this issue which allowed me have a clear cut idea about problem and perspectives of both states... Think school u deserve more recognition than the so called national news channel which tell the issue not the cause of the problem.

Humans waste water through bad agricultural practices. Who asked Karnataka and Tamil Nadu to grow so much rice and sugarcane? Grow different crops like pulses, groundnut, palm and millets.
@@rajx7120 bro Karnataka grows ragi (top in India) and corn (again no 1) rice is required for completing the food. But if we start expanding the agricultural land and paddy cultivation like Tamil Nadu, even we would require equal amount of water. Research before assuming. 😢
The following are my suggestions to help mitigate the problem: 1. There should be additional reservoirs in Cauvery Delta to ensure that water does not go into sea in excess years. 2. Mekadatu Balancing reservoir is essential for Karnataka to meet the monthly stipulations. If Tamilnadu objects, it should take the responsibility to store excess water released in earlier years and adjust it cumulatively, towards release from Karnataka. 3. The accounting year should be shifted to 1st April to 31st March, given the early rains due to climate change. 4. Distress Sharing: Whenever, Southwest Monsoon fails, the decrease in release to Tamilnadu should be calculated as if both Tamilnadu and Karnataka get their precipitation normally during Northeast Monsoon. Later, after Northeast monsoon, further release if any by Karnataka,based on actuals, should be decided. 5. Godavari releases a lot of excess water, some times in thousands of TMC per year. The water from Godavari be diverted to Srisailam reservoir and futher to Cauvery. It would help on the way Telangana, Rayalaseema and Tamilnadu. It should be implemented as a natural river linking project.
For your kind information Tamilnadu is delta region which is Kaveri following area. No natural things help for built the same Karnataka safely at Deccan pleatue. Use you're brain 🧠.
Flow of Krishna water to AP and Telangana is already blocked by Karnataka by raising Alametti dam. This Cauvery problem can be solved only by revising the age old regulations
This problem will remain untill both state starts working on Kaveri river catchment area forestation, small checkdams building, river area encrochment clearing and rejuvenating small and major water connections to Kaveri river. Majorly dredging in KRS dam.
TN government is not allowing Karnataka to construct the Mekedatu dam which would benefit both the states, it is due to TN's distrust and uncompromising attitude to be blamed for the crisis.
@@nagendraraman6410 Karnataka Politicians use Cauvery as a tool to demonize tamil nadu..if Mekadatu is built all water will be stopped....IN 2018 the Cauvery management board wanted all dams to be controlled by CWC but Karnataka opposed it...SM krishna was fully against it..IF dam is controlled by CWC just like Krishna or Godavari its fair..But KTN Politicians want to use this as hate tool and gain votes...i am blaming only politcos not normal people..in between i am no tamilian
Checkout at 0:55 , There is no citizenship for Karnataka or for any states as per the constitution , only residency should be used in defining states . The term citizenship shoud only be used for nation as a whole and not for individual states ,we often use the term citizenship as same as residency but its NEVER the same. please correct it .
People, politicians and officers have to understand that water has to be shared as per international standards , Sharing on the basis of not where water is originating but on the basis of how much area it flows in each country or state respectively. Unless rivers are nationalised, the same problem will continue.
1) The problem of drought should be shared by two states and not only by Karnataka 2) Let Tamil Nadu build a dam to collect more water or let Tamil Nadu agree to build a dam for Karnataka 3) The two states should jointly increase tree based agriculture in the Kaveri basin and bring back the old practice of millet cultivation.
They won't... they won't even allow to rebuild the mullaperiyar dam eventhough it is considered as a water bomb which may cause huge loss in life... they are selfish...
@@srinivasashree0000 If you are allowed to build a dam in Karnataka then there should be no water coming out for tamilanadu. The excess water due to heavy rain will be released it will not be the real use for tamilnadu as well
Thanks a lot think school for explaining the issue and detail..i have been listening to this cauvery river issue between these two states since my childhood but never knew exactly whats the issue was.
millets can be an add-on but never replace rice as a staple diet. Also, Kaveri length in Tamil Nadu is one third lengthier than Karnataka. In TN it passes through fertile lowlands, but in Karnataka, it passes through hilly areas so the dependency is high in TN.
@@naveenlife7721karnataka say water is our resources but want to open dam during good monsoon,want current produced in kudankum even though if there is any disaster tamil nadus has to take that risk .want current from NLC at the expense of our natural resources losses.

Very little known, but nonetheless important - Eating more millets and less rice could make a huge dent into this problem, as millets use way less water for cultivation. Rice obsession is a major contribution to this water problem😢. ❤ Stay strong
Historically, rice consumption was never this huge. People are addicted to it as it is now produced in bulk which lowers the cost. People here have survived for thousands of years on millets so there's a strong reason behind it
Nobody will buy millets Why do we eat millets when humans can stay alive eating potatos? It all boils down to supply and demand also the central government buys rice even when there is a surplus, will they buy millets the same way?
@siddharthsriram2685well, it's not a choice... Ethanol production is necessary... Fossil fuel usage has to be reduced... So yeah this is not shortcoming of BJP government, but a positive of BJP government which he didn't mention.

The fight for the river has been going on since the 12th century, between Kalyani Chalukyas and Cholas. It was a source of contention between Madras presidency and Kingdom of Mysore too. Kindly do read up when you guys get time, but as stated there has to be a newer perspective to the Cauvery Water Dispute Tribunal.
1.Government should think about to store North East monsoon in catchment area in TN 2. build a dam KA bcz it's a plateau so that dam/ reservoir, where these acts like 1 season lag to TN farmers so that farmers are suggested to crop based on rains. 3. If these didn't happen cropping pattern & technique has to change in both the states. These are small opinion 🙏
Substituting rice and sugar for millets in our diets would also improve health of the population. An avalanche of diabetes and cardiovascular disease in the future may potentially be avoided.
Millets don't have the taste of cooked rice. They come out as tasteless lumps when cooked. It will be difficult to change the food habits of majority rice eaters to switch to millets. It will be a miracle if this can be achieved at the level of the common people of both states.
13:20 Sugarcane needs less water than rice, as established previously. How come, millets need 4x less water than rice while needing 5x less water than sugarcane? 🤔
As a தமிழன் i accept some of the waters are going waste as our kannadiga brothers says but 1.those are not the parts of delta region (i mean some particular agriculture place in tamilnadu are depended on cauvery water because the place you see or think we are wasting water are other end of tamilnadu and those part are very fertile and have much water they needed & these two place have no relation by land they are too far so we can't transmit water in TMC for long distance) 2.our kannadiga brothers asks us to use oceans water as reverse osmosis, brother pls doo simple Google search how much it cost to reverse ocean water into drinkable water it takes millions of dollars for sure💯 if we had much money we could atleast build 3-4 dams 3.as everyone ask why can't tamils build a dam, yes offcourse we can build a dam but in this case dam should be build on agricultural region where we need water instead of cauvery, but unfortunately those land are plain surface sadly nobody can build a dam on plain surface coz how can a water flow on plain surface every dams are build on top of the slope so that water can be flowed down and distributed to different areas don't ask silly questions like why can't you use motors we are not pumping on gallons we have to pump for dozens of TMC's We are also humans i completely understand brother you need water but do understand we also need water not for other purpose but agricultural purpose for survival purpose it's wrong that you say cauvery only belongs to karnataka as water are common for even insects and animals and even as per world river management in which land more flow of river is considered as they belong that river so more flow is in tamilnadu offcourse,but i am not here to claim cauvery belongs to tamilnadu but also i won't accept cauvery only belong to Karnataka, waters are common natural resources and common things needs to be shared, do understand us brothers and if you have other opinion pls do reply in matured manner
Well Said, But do u think they will understand and agree with these logical reasons? Never... This is one of the biggest political tools and ppl have been brainwashed rather then seeing through the issue, even educated.... can't help,:(

@@srinivasashree0000 yes and one more thing is even central government is always against current ruling state govt means both are enemies even the enemy supports tamilnadu by telling karnataka that we to have some agricultural lands if you don't open water every crops gets destroyed and the humans depended on those also get affected so based on that govt took the rate of rainfall, drought, measure of farming land and how much water need for that land for both the state based on that they analysed and ordered by supremecourt to give a particular tmc for tamilnadu each month (and it varies if there's no rainfall )but these kannadiga politicians are making this politics and playing in many farmers life (i am not angry with my lovable kannadiga brothers but very angry with those who makes this politics and play with this as vote bank i also include tamilnadu )
As a resident of bangalore , So much money wasted due to protests in both the states. 1)Supreme court has already given its judgement 2)politics is main reason of protests. These politicians sell country for votes 3)If we build proper infrastructure, create awareness and practice correct agricultural methods we have sufficient water . And IDK who said u point 2 (reverse osmosis) 😂
@5:39 the shot used to show the river and the bridge is from Goa and not kerela or Karnataka. Think school editors please do such basic due diligence atleast
Kavery which originates in Karnataka flows around 34273 sq kms but at the same time in Tamilnadu it flows around 43868 sq kms. And in Karnataka it irrigates around 5.12 lakh hectares of agricultural land meanwhile in Tamilnadu 14.7 lakh hectares of agricultural land is dependant on Kaveri. (data from agrometeorology department of GoI) To put it simple it's more about who depends on it more than where it originates.
Some other ideas 💡 for this water crises 1 rain water harvesting 2 distillation or setup desalination plants to our coastal area 3 why can't we divert the face of river when it about to end in Arabian sea or bay of Bengal. Lol it could be a good idea for future may be ❤
Just increase forest cover ,rejuvenation of lakes, build more lakes, direct purified water to lakes since all water is pumped from borewells we need to replace it by purifying and storing in lakes which are great sources of ground water recharge
We can't divert the river like our toilet 😂😂😂 It will damage the river ecosystem and more chances to resulting in end the life of river. Perennial rivers are so delicate and at the same time they will cause floods if we try to divert it
Hope our farmers, politicians, public servants in the govt., and panchayats take a look at these kind of videos and do research of their own or consult the experts and draft a plan. It might take years to see it's effects on the surface, but it is really worth a shot. Good content. Thank you.
India is so so fortunate to have a monsoon type os climate...but look at the apathy of our system...rainwater harvesting is non-existent ....there are govt schemes for the same but I m not quite sure what the ground reality is...would recommend you to make a video on water scarcity in india

Us Kannadigas are asking for a viable, dynamic formula for sharing water during crisis .The political class will never resolve this issue since they can always use it to get to power. The cauvery water board has been issuing orders based off of age old surveys which havent factored in bengalurus mamoth growth . The board has to be very proactive and shouldn't rely on data provided by the state lawyers which may vary. Importantly, lot of politics and lobbying takes place behind the doors which leads absurd decisions creating confusion and disappointment amongst the public.

The water board has to frequently survey and shouldn't depend on age old surveys. Take you blame bs somewhere else coz it's equally TNs fault. Why have you increased agricultural land to 4 lakh hectares when the board only lows 1 lakh? Why didn't you take measures to store water for the additional agricultural land for the time of crisis?

After watching the video, what i felt is the title should have had the words "From Karnataka standpoint" on it. From TN side of things, it didnt even touch any point. * Firstly TN doesnt have any river that originates from its own border so it has to depend on other states for the water. * Second the technique that was implemented successfully was in Trichy district, meaning clearly TN is taking steps to reduce the water dependence. * Third, to be fair on both sides, there should have been a comparison between the losses incurred from both states both in investment and GDP output which would have clearly highlighted the problem. * Finally if Bangalore is the Tech hub of India, Chennai is the Healthcare, Financial Institutions, Education and Automotive hub of India (dont forget that TN is the most urbanised state in India) EXPECTED BETTER UNBIASED ANALYSIS FROM BOTH STATES STAND POINT FROM YOU.
One side Bangalore is growing indiscriminately and water required going up manifold other side court keeps on giving more water to Tamil Nadu despite no rains in the Kaveri basin.
Water is distributed considering the % of rain fall. The pact says that irrespective of the amount of rainfall, both states would get a % water . TN is rightfully asking it's share.
Tamilnadu is not building dams to store water, they just use some water and waste majority of it by making it flow to the bay of bengal, they like to watch the flowing of water and also not allowing Karnataka to build dams in Karnataka. If many dams are built in karnataka then they can supply water every day even during the summer time. Now in south karnataka part people (especially Bengaluru city) due to the less rainfall, they will not have any water to drink during summer time but Tamilnadu government wants this drinking water for their farmlands. Atleast we can import vegetables/rice from other states/country but we cannot afford to import drinking water in crucial times.
Dams cannot be built anywhere. Most of the Kaveri course in TN is in plains. More dams = more control and less natural flow of water. Karnataka can hold off water completely and claim strategical advantage. That is why TN is against it.
The New Indian Express paper says 8th June 2023 State received 3.5 times more Cauvery water than the quantity Karnataka is legally required to give last water year, around 60% of it ended up in the sea as the state does not have the capacity to store it. As per the data accessed by TNIE from the water resources department (WRD), Tamil Nadu received 667.67 TMC (Thousand Million Cubic Feet) of water from Karnataka from June 2022 to May 2023, against the legal mandate of 177 TMC. According to a senior WRD official, most of TN’s waterbodies, including the Mettur dam, were nearly full due to the excess rain the state received, and most of the surplus water was released into the sea. A conservative estimate pegs the water let into the sea at a whopping 400 TMC. Now TN asking for 5-10 TMCs
@@_GMP_ Even now people protest to release few water. If much dams are built, it will put TN at mercy of KA. And your adversarial tone, supports the theory. Just think in reverse for a sec. Would you allow your prime supply of water to a state which aggressively protest not to share water?? The solution, like said by Think School, is to change farming practices and reduce our dependence. We cannot, and our leaders will not solve these due to their politics
Mekedatu project can solve water problem of two states But the Tamil Nadu government does not support this! Because Tamil Nadu's main vote banks are language, Movie artists, and Kaveri.
But why only Karnataka government need to promote millets productions though they have the basin of the river but TN government must take up such precautions and ensure the supportive schemes instead of increasing their Irrigation land And these state government are more eager to give free rice more than required for their parties political agenda 😕
Actually TN started to promote millet productions 10 years ago they give incentives to farmers who produce millets (not as much as KA) but millets are not that much profitable as rice so farmers insists on going with rice. Also rice has become irreplaceable in an south Indian household so government has to promote millet based food products across India to increase demand so that for farmers it becomes more profitable.
Make compulsory to every building to install Rainwater Harvesting Plant. Without it don't approve any plan, for it center and state help in ration 20:20 ratio financial aid to builder.
Karnataka farmers protesting in banglore Bandh is affecting agricultural & urban(IT) economy of their own state... instead they should all go to Chennai and do the Bandh... Tamil Nadu should bear the urban loss only then they'll bend their knees.
This is the problem atleast you need to give water when there is drought if you build dam,each and everytime we need to come and beg for 6-7 months at that time our crops gets destroyed and no water for drinking.Even for this time too when u release water only we have NE rainfall which will be flood and also our crops gets destroyed each and everytime crops gets destroyed and hike in all prices .People in Karnataka should learn even though we face more issues in agriculture we are resilient and not indulging in behaviourial issues but you guys always indulge in riots and slapping every Tamil people don't you think we don't know fight.Try to behave as an educated with more compassion and empathy.
The video mainly focused on the problems faced by Karnataka and not the problems faced by Tamil Nadu without Kavery water.It would have been better if both the sides were covered.
Tbh any entrepreneur who knows how to talk to both govt and can make them believe in rainwater harvesting techniques and can get funding, its a business opportunity plus people from both states will be happy ❤
I did my project in a wetland at point calimer in tamil nadu near the bird sanctuary. If the water supply is disrupted to tamil nadu the main cauvery delta is the most affected the mangroves are already shifting and thinning in the summers it's a natural disaster we collected samples from the point were the river water enters the sea over a period of time in years to study and it's very little water that reaches the mangrove. There is not enough water to flush it out these are ramsar wetland conservation area that is suffering already. If karnataka thinks just because cauvery originated from them they need to have it's water its absurd because the said river flows mainly in tamil nadu and the delta which is fertail naturally is also in tamil nadu...this video is incomplete and not well addressed it's very one sided a thinking of someone who just googled saw the numbers and decided that he will make a video do justice to both sides and know the geography If not ask others before doing a video. Nobody can stop the water from flowing into it's delta when there are floods what will karnataka do? Say let's drown we love this river too much? Cauvery is the lifeline of Tamilnadu and it's importance is not because of British there were civilization that had thrived on this river basin for centuries...this is not an issue that is going to end but the media and politicians use it as a tool...

Even though Kerala and Karnataka which are along the Malabar and Konkan coasts respectively receives an average of 2000-2500mm rainfall annually. There has been massive irregularities with these figures. The area is heavily depenedent on the South west monsoon and even a 10-15% shortage can affect the farmers who are into water intensive crop production like rice. This year has seen a steep decline in SW monsoon numbers compared to the last few years despite the early predictions by IMD showing close to an at-par SW monsoon. As we can see multiple reports on sea surface temperature rising all around the world, this is only going to contribute more to the irregularities. The trend could be the same or even worse for the years ahead and systematic water conservation methods needs to be resorted. The central government and the supreme court will have to take hundreds of factors in consideration and cant be expected to do something which can massively change the status quo. Plus it is to be noted that the global demand for rice is still on an increasing trend and we cant stilll expect a massive shift in the crop prodcution practices.
@nikhilshajithumpassery6149 Tamilnadu govt agreed to build dam, but your kerala govt want to built the dam so as to scrap the British agreement. Don't shoe your literacy rate to tamils ok.
Why can't Karnataka follow the court ruling - I am sure the panel would have gone through the issues very deeply without just following British allocation. The River water should be nationalised and be distributed as per the requirement of both states - They should stop playing politics and discuss in deep to find the solution.
In Tamil Nadu cultivation happening more than 3000 years in cauvery delta. Ideally Cauvery origin points like Kudagu, Mysore should be part of Tamil Nadu. But it's not properly divided. The natural justice is delta ppl having more rights on river water. The solution will be all the dams including Tamilnadu should go to common body control. they will execute cauvery tribunal verdict and central government forces should be there in Dam safety.
Don’t forget that a lot of villages were built in TN around the original catchment areas. If infrastructure cannot be sustained, planning such endeavors is a self fulfilling prophecy. Keep in mind the British had nothing to do with this
Bro you didn’t explain tamilnadu’s economy with Cauvery. Please do make a video in it and also you didn’t mention the water consumption in detail or ground water crises in Bangalore. There are a lots of misinformation spreading in comments and also some disputes. This video is great and provides business opportunities. I would also like to say that in Politics there lies a opportunity for great business if done rightly
Cultivating millets will not profitable atall!! I just had a talk with my grandpa he is a farmer, he says “in 1 acre of land 100kg of millets can be grown , and any rain will destroy the yield .. millets 6 months- 100kg - 300/kg ( retail shop value) = 30,000 (farmer sells it way lesser cost) … rice 6months 1 acre - 3000kg - 50/kg (retail shop value) 1,50,000… ( in real farmer will sell 1kg rice for 20rupees on a good day .. yield of 1acre will earn 60,000 without taking out pesticides expenditure) rest added money belongs with middle man !! “ Imagine the situation of an average farmer family !! They should live in
Agriculture is the culprit. We grow all the rice guzzling crops like rice and sugarcane. Same in Punjab. They should grow pulses, groundnut, cotton and oil palms.

The New Indian Express paper says 8th June 2023 State received 3.5 times more Cauvery water than the quantity Karnataka is legally required to give last water year, around 60% of it ended up in the sea as the state does not have the capacity to store it. As per the data accessed by TNIE from the water resources department (WRD), Tamil Nadu received 667.67 TMC (Thousand Million Cubic Feet) of water from Karnataka from June 2022 to May 2023, against the legal mandate of 177 TMC. According to a senior WRD official, most of TN’s waterbodies, including the Mettur dam, were nearly full due to the excess rain the state received, and most of the surplus water was released into the sea. A conservative estimate pegs the water let into the sea at a whopping 400 TMC. Now TN asking for 5-10 TMCs
That's the water realeased by Karnataka due to the overflow of Dams not by willingness excess water from river can't find storage in TN so they let it go to sea
@@gobi3025 TN don't want Karnataka to build new dam TN don't have space to build a new dam to store excess water TN is okay with wasting water into the ocean that is 400 TMC which is 5 times the Mettur dam capacity but not okay with Karnataka building a new dam.

@@subramanianktn8401 yeah but they can divert water or store water in different ways if you take the example of Telangana they build 2 projects where they pump water from river because their land is in higher elevations than rivers and they can't build dams or use water.
@@nageshwaranrahul first the Telangana land scape is very high elevated compared Godavari basin because of it they can't use water even if they want. Second because of regular cyclones formed on the east coast there will be rainfall throughout the year in jharkhand which gives a lot of water to Godavari. That's why it flows the entire year and is used for a lot of forming in Godavari district in AP. That's why the polavaram dam is very important because it gives a constant supply of water to AP which will make AP water slove in an instant. After completing 2 canals will build one go to visakhapatnam other go to Krishna basin from there it goes all they way to Penna river
everyone please..read the water rights of the river as per world and india.. before dam are built.. people will settle in flat are of the river base..its always end of the river going to sea.. mostly halfway of the river basins.
I am from Chennai and TN has worst ministers ever. They haven’t built any dam to control the river that mix with ocean. So every year there is shortage of water.
Amazing how india manages to ignore the dispute between kerala and Tamilnadu about Mullaperiyar dam... Which is 100 YEARS OVERDUE IT'S LIFE... Makes me wonder if really india considers kerala an integral part or a dead weight.
1) it's between two subjects of the nation. If the centre or the supreme court meddles in it ,it will hurt their rights.. 2) Assam , Meghalaya, arunachal, Nagaland are always at each other's throat due to the border issue, same case with the Punjab and dehli smoke issue , similarly Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand fighting over mineral rights coz they both are India's largest mineral and steel producing states, Himachal-Uttarakhand border dispute.

Cochin shipyard... international Airport... And all I'm seeing is excuses from both the government... And icing on the cake is that the dam is sitting in the 3rd most earthquake prone locations in india... If it brakes...its going to take a big chunk of out of India economy, military, and population... Better safe than sorry...

TN government is not allowing Karnataka to construct the Mekedatu dam which would benefit both the states, it is TN's distrust and uncompromising attitude to be blamed for the crisis.
More small dams and lakes needed on TN side to store water when there is excess rain and avoid flooding. This water can be reused during draught seasons.

This is what UA-cam is meant for. Good job man.
I am a Kannadiga and this problem arises every couple of years and i see no viable solution for this, The government don't wanna give away water but the high court's orders has to be followed...and people protest against the government.
Solution is simple. Stop growing rice and sugarcane.
Switch to pulses, groundnuts and millets.
Mainly this problem comes up due to the problem of lack of monsoon rains and during drought the two states should share the problem together but Tamil Nadu is not agreeing to this since before! Their main argument is that whether it rains or not, we need a normal share
Our government is only concentrating on business and economy so , they are not at all concerned about our farmers, besides we only don't have water then from where we will provide water to other states.

As Kannadiga from north it doesn't bother me Krishna Basin covers 70% of Karnataka. Bengaluru is dependent on Kaveri only solution for it's drinking water problem is ofcourse Rain Water Harvesting, and also they should develop some other city in Karnataka to so the burden for Bengaluru is reduced. Which I don't think any current party is thinking to do
They are too invested in Bengaluru and wont allow other cities to develop.
@@maheshramamurthy5654they are not invested in us either, it is just very politically convenient for them

Instead of investing in Doubling Railway Lines in Karnataka and Constructing Dedicated Freight Corridors, Constructing Many Ports in Karnataka and Constructring Wide Roads in Karnataka. Also Karnataka Govt is not focusing in Developing North Bangalore and Tumkur City. Tier 2 Cities Infrastructure like Mangalore, Udupi, Hassan, Mysore, Hubbali, Tumkur, Davanagere also need immediate push.
Man I was in Bangalore few weeks ago and banglore is indeed very overburden as it is now if there were 2 or 3 other cities to share the burden it would vastly help you guys
People like you are problem. It is not only Bengaluru depends on Kaveri, but alao farmers of south karnataka.
Devegowda fought for Krishna water, but nort people dont support south when kaveri crisis comes.
please address another important issue of drinking water crisis in Bangalore and other South Karnataka cities it is not only the farmers but also the common middle class dependent for drinking water
lol only if the farmers get water will the common middle class man have food on the table.
The solution is simple, all these big cities and states should force the companies which are not into manufacturing and where workforce can be work from home, should be work from home. As this country has a massive population and suddenly the establishment of private sector forces the majority to live in a few selected cities and states. Which is actually not only exhausting for natural resources but also for a lot of things. Work from home should be given across Bharat.
Hi Veera,
I want you to ask this question to your govt your telling water scarcity in cities but the packaged drinking water is sold everywhere without shortage?? Think about it
South Karnataka cities like ?
@@shravan97 work from home doesn't decrease water supply usage. It would save electricity and other few resources. Most of the companies in bengaluru are private sector with non-manufacturing background but they also have assets like buildings so it is a loss if they keep it close and it will hamper their effeciency too. So rather they would sell it or rent it out increasing water usage. SO by my thinking work from home doesn't help

Tamil Nadu can take more water from the Mullaperiyar dam in Kerala which is in danger...thus get more water and save our lives. I wonder why TN does not take that measure

This is an incomplete analysis.
First the British didn't favour Madras Presidency, They calculated the river flow length. A river is called a river from origin till sea point.
Based on that the share was given. This point you didn't and blindly said British favourrd.
If karnataka wants the claim of cauvery, please take it. Don't send one drop of water. Ok agreed ?. But please don't send water when there is a high rain fall.
So you don't want cauvery in tamil nadu when water shortage and need cauvery in tamil nadu when more rain fall. This suits the best definition of hypocrisy.
Second, Banglore didn't have water shortage bcoz of cauvery water sent to TN.
Even if you have all water and if for one day the lorrey drivers goes to protest, banglore will have shortage. What does TN do here.
Without a limit you allowed people bcoz you get tax and revenue and economy, this eventually dried the underground water level.
So the correct problem is how will banglore make water level higher.
Since ages, People only near the river consumr water from river. Nobody in Chennai or kanyakumari is using cauvery water. It is only the Delta region.
Why does banglore depend on cauvery water which is atleast 100 Km away from nearest cauvery??
Banglore guys didn't do water management, and allowed people without planning, and blame Tamil nadu for your water shortage.

The following are my suggestions to help mitigate the problem:
1. There should be additional reservoirs in Cauvery Delta to ensure that water does not go into sea in excess years.
2. Mekadatu Balancing reservoir is essential for Karnataka to meet the monthly stipulations. If Tamilnadu objects, it should take the responsibility to store excess water released in earlier years and adjust it cumulatively, towards release from Karnataka.
3. The accounting year should be shifted to 1st April to 31st March, given the early rains due to climate change.
4. Distress Sharing: Whenever, Southwest Monsoon fails, the decrease in release to Tamilnadu should be calculated as if both Tamilnadu and Karnataka get their precipitation normally during Northeast Monsoon. Later, after Northeast monsoon, further release if any by Karnataka,based on actuals, should be decided.
5. Godavari releases a lot of excess water, some times in thousands of TMC per year. The water from Godavari be diverted to Srisailam reservoir and futher to Cauvery. It would help on the way Telangana, Rayalaseema and Tamilnadu. It should be implemented as a natural river linking project.
For your kind information Tamilnadu is delta region which is Kaveri following area. No natural things help for built the same Karnataka safely at Deccan pleatue. Use you're brain 🧠.
Flow of Krishna water to AP and Telangana is already blocked by Karnataka by raising Alametti dam. This Cauvery problem can be solved only by revising the age old regulations

Very little known, but nonetheless important - Eating more millets and less rice could make a huge dent into this problem, as millets use way less water for cultivation. Rice obsession is a major contribution to this water problem😢. ❤ Stay strong
Historically, rice consumption was never this huge. People are addicted to it as it is now produced in bulk which lowers the cost. People here have survived for thousands of years on millets so there's a strong reason behind it
Nobody will buy millets
Why do we eat millets when humans can stay alive eating potatos?
It all boils down to supply and demand also the central government buys rice even when there is a surplus, will they buy millets the same way?

Substituting rice and sugar for millets in our diets would also improve health of the population. An avalanche of diabetes and cardiovascular disease in the future may potentially be avoided.
Millets don't have the taste of cooked rice. They come out as tasteless lumps when cooked. It will be difficult to change the food habits of majority rice eaters to switch to millets. It will be a miracle if this can be achieved at the level of the common people of both states.

As a தமிழன் i accept some of the waters are going waste as our kannadiga brothers says but 1.those are not the parts of delta region (i mean some particular agriculture place in tamilnadu are depended on cauvery water because the place you see or think we are wasting water are other end of tamilnadu and those part are very fertile and have much water they needed & these two place have no relation by land they are too far so we can't transmit water in TMC for long distance)
2.our kannadiga brothers asks us to use oceans water as reverse osmosis, brother pls doo simple Google search how much it cost to reverse ocean water into drinkable water it takes millions of dollars for sure💯 if we had much money we could atleast build 3-4 dams
3.as everyone ask why can't tamils build a dam, yes offcourse we can build a dam but in this case dam should be build on agricultural region where we need water instead of cauvery, but unfortunately those land are plain surface sadly nobody can build a dam on plain surface coz how can a water flow on plain surface every dams are build on top of the slope so that water can be flowed down and distributed to different areas don't ask silly questions like why can't you use motors we are not pumping on gallons we have to pump for dozens of TMC's
We are also humans i completely understand brother you need water but do understand we also need water not for other purpose but agricultural purpose for survival purpose it's wrong that you say cauvery only belongs to karnataka as water are common for even insects and animals and even as per world river management in which land more flow of river is considered as they belong that river so more flow is in tamilnadu offcourse,but i am not here to claim cauvery belongs to tamilnadu but also i won't accept cauvery only belong to Karnataka, waters are common natural resources and common things needs to be shared, do understand us brothers and if you have other opinion pls do reply in matured manner
Well Said, But do u think they will understand and agree with these logical reasons? Never... This is one of the biggest political tools and ppl have been brainwashed rather then seeing through the issue, even educated.... can't help,:(
1) The problem of drought should be shared by two states and not only by Karnataka
2) Let Tamil Nadu build a dam to collect more water or let Tamil Nadu agree to build a dam for Karnataka
3) The two states should jointly increase tree based agriculture in the Kaveri basin and bring back the old practice of millet cultivation.
@@srinivasashree0000 yes and one more thing is even central government is always against current ruling state govt means both are enemies even the enemy supports tamilnadu by telling karnataka that we to have some agricultural lands if you don't open water every crops gets destroyed and the humans depended on those also get affected so based on that govt took the rate of rainfall, drought, measure of farming land and how much water need for that land for both the state based on that they analysed and ordered by supremecourt to give a particular tmc for tamilnadu each month (and it varies if there's no rainfall )but these kannadiga politicians are making this politics and playing in many farmers life (i am not angry with my lovable kannadiga brothers but very angry with those who makes this politics and play with this as vote bank i also include tamilnadu )
As a what? i couldnt read that tamil word. can u explain?
As a resident of bangalore , So much money wasted due to protests in both the states. 1)Supreme court has already given its judgement 2)politics is main reason of protests. These politicians sell country for votes 3)If we build proper infrastructure, create awareness and practice correct agricultural methods we have sufficient water .

Kavery which originates in Karnataka flows around 34273 sq kms but at the same time in Tamilnadu it flows around 43868 sq kms. And in Karnataka it irrigates around 5.12 lakh hectares of agricultural land meanwhile in Tamilnadu 14.7 lakh hectares of agricultural land is dependant on Kaveri. (data from agrometeorology department of GoI)
To put it simple it's more about who depends on it more than where it originates.
Some other ideas 💡 for this water crises
1 rain water harvesting
2 distillation or setup desalination plants to our coastal area
3 why can't we divert the face of river when it about to end in Arabian sea or bay of Bengal. Lol it could be a good idea for future may be ❤
Just increase forest cover ,rejuvenation of lakes, build more lakes, direct purified water to lakes since all water is pumped from borewells we need to replace it by purifying and storing in lakes which are great sources of ground water recharge
Desalination plants are too costly
Bro do you have any idea how much a desalination plant would cost. Countries like Israel and UAE can afford it not us.
We can't divert the river like our toilet 😂😂😂
It will damage the river ecosystem and more chances to resulting in end the life of river.
Perennial rivers are so delicate and at the same time they will cause floods if we try to divert it
2nd and 3rd options are not feasible.
Hope our farmers, politicians, public servants in the govt., and panchayats take a look at these kind of videos and do research of their own or consult the experts and draft a plan. It might take years to see it's effects on the surface, but it is really worth a shot. Good content. Thank you.

Us Kannadigas are asking for a viable, dynamic formula for sharing water during crisis .The political class will never resolve this issue since they can always use it to get to power. The cauvery water board has been issuing orders based off of age old surveys which havent factored in bengalurus mamoth growth . The board has to be very proactive and shouldn't rely on data provided by the state lawyers which may vary. Importantly, lot of politics and lobbying takes place behind the doors which leads absurd decisions creating confusion and disappointment amongst the public.
This is an incomplete analysis.
First the British didn't favour Madras Presidency, They calculated the river flow length. A river is called a river from origin till sea point.
Based on that the share was given. This point you didn't and blindly said British favourrd.
If karnataka wants the claim of cauvery, please take it. Don't send one drop of water. Ok agreed ?. But please don't send water when there is a high rain fall.
So you don't want cauvery in tamil nadu when water shortage and need cauvery in tamil nadu when more rain fall. This suits the best definition of hypocrisy.
Second, Banglore didn't have water shortage bcoz of cauvery water sent to TN.
Even if you have all water and if for one day the lorrey drivers goes to protest, banglore will have shortage. What does TN do here.
Without a limit you allowed people bcoz you get tax and revenue and economy, this eventually dried the underground water level.
So the correct problem is how will banglore make water level higher.
Since ages, People only near the river consumr water from river. Nobody in Chennai or kanyakumari is using cauvery water. It is only the Delta region.
Why does banglore depend on cauvery water which is atleast 100 Km away from nearest cauvery??
Banglore guys didn't do water management, and allowed people without planning, and blame Tamil nadu for your water shortage.
I'm in chennai, when I switch on the motor, I get water.
Why banglore people switch on the motor, there is no water?? This is the real point to be discussed which surprisingly missed here in this analysis.
@@MyTamilNadu2023 Why are you ranting and when did I say we want to stop the river water? Can't you read? I clearly said The formula has to be dynamic and adjusted for when there's less rainfall and about the British, it's the same thing I'm saying you genius! The water board has to frequently survey and shouldn't depend on age old surveys. Take you blame bs somewhere else coz it's equally TNs fault. Why have you increased agricultural land to 4 lakh hectares when the board only lows 1 lakh? Why didn't you take measures to store water for the additional agricultural land for the time of crisis? It's easy to blame the other party, try and reflect for once. If anything, it's both at fault here.
@@MyTamilNadu2023we are happy to construct dam, why can't you guys stop opposing it? here you say don't send water and when we construct dam , you people say not to construct dam also. typical kongas😂
@@ygk1 Why build Dam brother. Build a wall. So that you Don't have to send a drop to Tamil nadu. Is that Ok
But...
If there is a shortage of rainfall, there will always be heavy rain fall. That is the order of nature.
What will you do then?? Break the wall? And release water to cauvery river flowing in Tamil nadu.
You stop the natural flow whenever required and allow whenever required is a pure sign of madness.
Water is a nature's product. Do kannadigas chant any mantras to get water? Or a tamilians does? Understand going against nature will always have impact. No matter what language the people speak.
Cauvery water used for banglore which is 100 KM away literally says banglore is dried up with underground water. That is the point to be addressed.

Ultimately colonial British rulers favoured Madras presidency over princely state of Mysore ie Karnataka.

After watching the video, what i felt is the title should have had the words "From Karnataka standpoint" on it. From TN side of things, it didnt even touch any point.
* Firstly TN doesnt have any river that originates from its own border so it has to depend on other states for the water.
* Second the technique that was implemented successfully was in Trichy district, meaning clearly TN is taking steps to reduce the water dependence.
* Third, to be fair on both sides, there should have been a comparison between the losses incurred from both states both in investment and GDP output which would have clearly highlighted the problem.
* Finally if Bangalore is the Tech hub of India, Chennai is the Healthcare, Financial Institutions, Education and Automotive hub of India (dont forget that TN is the most urbanised state in India)
EXPECTED BETTER UNBIASED ANALYSIS FROM BOTH STATES STAND POINT FROM YOU.
Sir, cauvery doesn't flow to chrnnai
90% of people living in Chennai are Tamilians while Bangalore is cosmopolitan.
Tamils are the best in selfishness
One side Bangalore is growing indiscriminately and water required going up manifold other side court keeps on giving more water to Tamil Nadu despite no rains in the Kaveri basin.
Water is distributed considering the % of rain fall. The pact says that irrespective of the amount of rainfall, both states would get a % water . TN is rightfully asking it's share.
Bangalore is not drinking tn share of water
@@suhask.r9240 We never said so
@@boxerkrisnan pls check the primary statement
Most sensible best explanation of the issue anywhere on internet
Tamilnadu is not building dams to store water, they just use some water and waste majority of it by making it flow to the bay of bengal, they like to watch the flowing of water and also not allowing Karnataka to build dams in Karnataka. If many dams are built in karnataka then they can supply water every day even during the summer time.
Now in south karnataka part people (especially Bengaluru city) due to the less rainfall, they will not have any water to drink during summer time but Tamilnadu government wants this drinking water for their farmlands.
Atleast we can import vegetables/rice from other states/country but we cannot afford to import drinking water in crucial times.
Dams cannot be built anywhere. Most of the Kaveri course in TN is in plains. More dams = more control and less natural flow of water. Karnataka can hold off water completely and claim strategical advantage. That is why TN is against it.
Why not allowing Karnataka to build dams then ?
The New Indian Express paper says
8th June 2023
State received 3.5 times more Cauvery water than the quantity Karnataka is legally required to give last water year, around 60% of it ended up in the sea as the state does not have the capacity to store it. As per the data accessed by TNIE from the water resources department (WRD), Tamil Nadu received 667.67 TMC (Thousand Million Cubic Feet) of water from Karnataka from June 2022 to May 2023, against the legal mandate of 177 TMC.
According to a senior WRD official, most of TN’s waterbodies, including the Mettur dam, were nearly full due to the excess rain the state received, and most of the surplus water was released into the sea.
A conservative estimate pegs the water let into the sea at a whopping 400 TMC.
Now TN asking for 5-10 TMCs
@@_GMP_ 400 TMC??? where did u came up with this figures? whatsapp university?
@@_GMP_ Even now people protest to release few water. If much dams are built, it will put TN at mercy of KA. And your adversarial tone, supports the theory. Just think in reverse for a sec. Would you allow your prime supply of water to a state which aggressively protest not to share water?? The solution, like said by Think School, is to change farming practices and reduce our dependence. We cannot, and our leaders will not solve these due to their politics
Very objective and realistic explanation of the historic and current situation, bravo! 👏
Mekedatu project can solve water problem of two states But the Tamil Nadu government does not support this! Because Tamil Nadu's main vote banks are language, Movie artists, and Kaveri.
Well said. Main food for regional parties in Tamilnadu are language and kaveri..

You are amazing man!!
But why only Karnataka government need to promote millets productions though they have the basin of the river but TN government must take up such precautions and ensure the supportive schemes instead of increasing their Irrigation land
And these state government are more eager to give free rice more than required for their parties political agenda 😕
They waste a lot than they actually give
Actually TN started to promote millet productions 10 years ago they give incentives to farmers who produce millets (not as much as KA) but millets are not that much profitable as rice so farmers insists on going with rice. Also rice has become irreplaceable in an south Indian household so government has to promote millet based food products across India to increase demand so that for farmers it becomes more profitable.
SRI technique is from Trichy(Tamilnadu)🧠🧠
Tamil Nadu and esp delta areas shoukd change. Drier Tamil Nadu is already a millet area
Make compulsory to every building to install Rainwater Harvesting Plant. Without it don't approve any plan, for it center and state help in ration 20:20 ratio financial aid to builder.
Karnataka farmers protesting in banglore Bandh is affecting agricultural & urban(IT) economy of their own state... instead they should all go to Chennai and do the Bandh... Tamil Nadu should bear the urban loss only then they'll bend their knees.
This is the problem atleast you need to give water when there is drought if you build dam,each and everytime we need to come and beg for 6-7 months at that time our crops gets destroyed and no water for drinking.Even for this time too when u release water only we have NE rainfall which will be flood and also our crops gets destroyed each and everytime crops gets destroyed and hike in all prices .People in Karnataka should learn even though we face more issues in agriculture we are resilient and not indulging in behaviourial issues but you guys always indulge in riots and slapping every Tamil people don't you think we don't know fight.Try to behave as an educated with more compassion and empathy.
Now you guys facing water crisis 😂
*Thank you Team Think School. Good information as well as good food for thought & appropriate action👍🙏*
The video mainly focused on the problems faced by Karnataka and not the problems faced by Tamil Nadu without Kavery water.It would have been better if both the sides were covered.
Tbh any entrepreneur who knows how to talk to both govt and can make them believe in rainwater harvesting techniques and can get funding, its a business opportunity plus people from both states will be happy ❤
I did my project in a wetland at point calimer in tamil nadu near the bird sanctuary. If the water supply is disrupted to tamil nadu the main cauvery delta is the most affected the mangroves are already shifting and thinning in the summers it's a natural disaster we collected samples from the point were the river water enters the sea over a period of time in years to study and it's very little water that reaches the mangrove. There is not enough water to flush it out these are ramsar wetland conservation area that is suffering already. If karnataka thinks just because cauvery originated from them they need to have it's water its absurd because the said river flows mainly in tamil nadu and the delta which is fertail naturally is also in tamil nadu...this video is incomplete and not well addressed it's very one sided a thinking of someone who just googled saw the numbers and decided that he will make a video do justice to both sides and know the geography If not ask others before doing a video. Nobody can stop the water from flowing into it's delta when there are floods what will karnataka do? Say let's drown we love this river too much? Cauvery is the lifeline of Tamilnadu and it's importance is not because of British there were civilization that had thrived on this river basin for centuries...this is not an issue that is going to end but the media and politicians use it as a tool...
If there is no water means where is water. High table is difficult to manage because it will drain. What do you mean by conflict.
One sided Review. Where the points to justify Tamilnadu?. Asusual Whenever INC is in power the issue will come.

Excellent work Ganesh! Very good point made about the irregularity of the rainfall in our southern peninsula. Even though Kerala and Karnataka which are along the Malabar and Konkan coasts respectively receives an average of 2000-2500mm rainfall annually. There has been massive irregularities with these figures. The area is heavily depenedent on the South west monsoon and even a 10-15% shortage can affect the farmers who are into water intensive crop production like rice. This year has seen a steep decline in SW monsoon numbers compared to the last few years despite the early predictions by IMD showing close to an at-par SW monsoon. As we can see multiple reports on sea surface temperature rising all around the world, this is only going to contribute more to the irregularities. The trend could be the same or even worse for the years ahead and systematic water conservation methods needs to be resorted. The central government and the supreme court will have to take hundreds of factors in consideration and cant be expected to do something which can massively change the status quo. Plus it is to be noted that the global demand for rice is still on an increasing trend and we cant stilll expect a massive shift in the crop prodcution practices.
So deep! Gud job

Why can't Karnataka follow the court ruling - I am sure the panel would have gone through the issues very deeply without just following British allocation. The River water should be nationalised and be distributed as per the requirement of both states - They should stop playing politics and discuss in deep to find the solution.

Superb... Millets are a miracle crop and government and influencers like you must ensure this reaches the right farmers..
In Tamil Nadu cultivation happening more than 3000 years in cauvery delta. Ideally
Cauvery origin points like Kudagu, Mysore should be part of Tamil Nadu. But it's not properly divided.
The natural justice is delta ppl having more rights on river water.
The solution will be all the dams including Tamilnadu should go to common body control. they will execute cauvery tribunal verdict and central government forces should be there in Dam safety.
Don’t forget that a lot of villages were built in TN around the original catchment areas. If infrastructure cannot be sustained, planning such endeavors is a self fulfilling prophecy. Keep in mind the British had nothing to do with this
Bro you didn’t explain tamilnadu’s economy with Cauvery. Please do make a video in it and also you didn’t mention the water consumption in detail or ground water crises in Bangalore. There are a lots of misinformation spreading in comments and also some disputes. This video is great and provides business opportunities. I would also like to say that in Politics there lies a opportunity for great business if done rightly
Cultivating millets will not profitable atall!! I just had a talk with my grandpa he is a farmer, he says “in 1 acre of land 100kg of millets can be grown , and any rain will destroy the yield .. millets 6 months- 100kg - 300/kg ( retail shop value) = 30,000 (farmer sells it way lesser cost) … rice 6months 1 acre - 3000kg - 50/kg (retail shop value) 1,50,000… ( in real farmer will sell 1kg rice for 20rupees on a good day .. yield of 1acre will earn 60,000 without taking out pesticides expenditure) rest added money belongs with middle man !! “
Imagine the situation of an average farmer family !! They should live in
I am so in sync with this channel that first taught came to my main after he said rice and sugar's water consumption is the millets.
Agriculture is the culprit. We grow all the rice guzzling crops like rice and sugarcane. Same in Punjab.

@@nageshwaranrahul first the Telangana land scape is very high elevated compared Godavari basin because of it they can't use water even if they want.
Second because of regular cyclones formed on the east coast there will be rainfall throughout the year in jharkhand which gives a lot of water to Godavari. That's why it flows the entire year and is used for a lot of forming in Godavari district in AP.
That's why the polavaram dam is very important because it gives a constant supply of water to AP which will make AP water slove in an instant.

What's the reason??
Because Karnataka is wasting water on sugarcane and Tamil Nadu wasting water on rice.
