CAUVERY VERDICT
Total water availability (per year) in Cauvery- 736 tmc to 740 tmc (in non-distress period)
Tamilnadus Share 419 tmc	Karnatakas Share 270 tmc	Keralas Share 30 tmc	Puducherrys share7 tmc
Where it comes from
For TN TN will get 192 tmc from Karnataka The rest 227 tmc will come from its own catchment area. This includes water gets into Cauvery river from from TNs Noyyal, Bhavani and Kollidam rivers	For Karnataka The water available from Tala Cauvery to Biligundu (catchment area) belongs to Karnataka	For Kerala Karnataka has to give	For Puducherry Tamilnadu has to give
As a last reparian state TN should leave 10 tmc of water in cauvery river, for environmental purpose
Why TN is not a winner After getting 192 tmc from Karnataka, TN has to give 7 tmc to Puducherry and leave 10 tmc in cauvery itself. So, TNs share comes downto 175 tmc. This is well below the 205 tmc allotted in the interim order of tribunal.		Why Karnataka is not a loser Karnataka need to give only 192 tmc to TN, not 205 tmc as stipulated in interim award
Karnatakas major reservation Why 419 tmc for TN and only 270 tmc for us?		Tribunals answer The share was worked out after the assessors report of total cultivable land in all the four states and water required and climatic patterns
Why TN is celebrating? There was no assurance of getting any amount of water from Karnataka till now. But, now the final order has mandated the centre to form a monitoring committee to ensure the flow of stipulated water from Karnataka. So whatever water comes is fine for TN
The major misunderstanding (in Karnataka) Karnataka has to give 419 tmc to TN, which is not the fact. It is only 192 tmc
When rain gods fail... In distress period all the states have to reduce their share, in the ratio of final order.And every alternative year is a distress year in the peninsula for the last few decades!!
