The Mekedatu dam row has snowballed into a political slugfest in Tamil Nadu, with governing and opposition parties trading barbs instead of closing ranks against Karnataka’s proposed project on Cauvery. The project, opposed by Tamil Nadu, has become a flashpoint after multiple legal and political moves, exposing divisions over how to fight Karnataka’s push.Electricity minister R Nirmalkumar accused DMK of echoing Karnataka CM DK Shivakumar and working against CM C Joseph Vijay. TN Congress president B Manickam Tagore countered that Shivakumar would naturally defend his state, while he would stand for Tamil Nadu “without any party barriers”.
