Contending that Karnataka Chief Minister Jagadish Shivappa Shettar and six others had brazenly and wilfully disobeyed the September 28 order to release 9,000 cusecs of water, the Tamil Nadu Government on Wednesday moved the Supreme Court seeking initiation of contempt proceedings against them.
Besides the Chief Minister, others against whom contempt action is sought are: Basavaraj S. Bommai, Minister of Water Resources; S.V. Ranganath, Chief Secretary; D. Satya Murty, Secretary, Water Resources Department;
