New Delhi : News Express 24 :-
The way to release water to Marathwada in Nashik, Ahmednagar is finally opened. The Supreme Court has ordered the Bombay High Court to cancel 8 TMC water from the Nilvande and other dams in the Supreme Court. Leader of the Opposition Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil and others had petitioned to stay the proceedings. But the Supreme Court dismisses the petition of Vikhe Patil and others.
Finally, the Supreme Court gave the verdict on the ongoing debate over the issue of release of water to Marathwada in Nashik-Nagar dams. Many petitions have also been filed in the Nashik-Nagar dams to prevent Marathwada from releasing water and also to release Marathwada water from dams in Nashik-Nagar. The Bombay High Court had earlier clarified that during the hearing on the petition, the court did not have any private property, hence no one can claim it. “It is the only state government on water that the government can take a decision on sharing water allocation,” he said. “Even if there is water shortage or drought conditions, water can not be left for religious or similar reasons,” the High Court had said. The Bombay High Court has also ordered the release of water in the Supreme Court.
