Kannada organisations urges PM to take steps for flood relief

Unhappy with the current situation prevailing in north Karnataka due to the recent floods, pro-Kannada organisations have written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the hope of getting prompt relief from the Centre.
The Kannada Organisations Action Committee in Belagavi, written a letter to the PM claiming that there might be starvation deaths pointing to a recent tragedy where a four-year-old child died due to malnutrition in the district.
The association also asked the Prime Minister to solve the interstate dispute between Karnataka and Maharashtra regarding the Mahadayi river water sharing issue.
The letter noted that if the dispute dragged in the Supreme Court like the Cauvery issue, then people of 13 taluks of 4 districts will suffer heavily from acute drinking water shortage.
In the letter the Organisation also mentioned that the Centre could have released at least 50% of the estimated loss amount.
