महानदी जल विवाद पर बीजद ने छत्तीसगढ़ के सीएम पर कसा तंज!

Transcript

00:00No, so we expected that immediately this government came into power. Because the same party is

00:06ruling in Chhattisgarh also, in Odisha also, they would start discussion to solve the problem.

00:13But unfortunately, nine months have elapsed already and only yesterday when the Honorable

00:19Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh came to Odisha, there has been a little discussion between

00:23the two Honorable Chief Ministers. But my point is, if you want to solve the problem,

00:30and particularly the Chhattisgarh government want to solve the problem, they should immediately

00:34stop ongoing work. Whichever dam projects or barrages are incomplete, they should immediately

00:40stop the work to facilitate further discussion. Because earlier also when Srinivin Padnaik

00:45was Chief Minister of Odisha, he had several times written to the central government and

00:49to the Chhattisgarh government. And if I correctly remember, there had been more than

00:55two rounds of discussions in the presence of the representative of the central government

01:00also. But that didn't bear any fruit because of the adamant attitude of the Chhattisgarh

01:07government. So, now it is a triple engine government. The same party is ruling at the

01:13centre and in Chhattisgarh and in Odisha also. So, I think they should take benefit

01:19of this situation and continue the discussion. But my point is, only discussing on the table

01:27over a cup of tea and releasing place and doubt is not going to solve the problem. It

01:31is a question of attitude of the central government and the Chhattisgarh government. If they don't

01:35change their attitude, then I don't think there would be any fruitful result of this

01:40discussion, number one. Number two is, let Chhattisgarh government release the water.

01:45Why they are stopping the water for the downstream in Mahanadi? For that, Odisha is very severely

01:51affected and now the summer season is there. As you know, in summer season we face acute

01:57scarcity of water and the downstream Mahanadi is almost dry today. So, let Chhattisgarh

02:04government release sufficient water so that the downstream river will flow.
