BJP in Goa plays down Mahadayi assurance

BJP in Goa had a conflict of interest with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah on their assurances regarding the Mahadayi issue during the campaigning in poll-bound Karnataka.

State BJP spokesperson and South Goa MP Narendra Savoikar on Thursday said the Goa BJP had faith in the inter-state water dispute tribunal which is adjudicating the row.

Addressing a press conference at the party’s state headquarters in Panaji, Savoikar said, “He (Shah) has said the issue will be solved immediately after (BJP forms the government). As far as we are concerned, the matter right now is before the tribunal. We will rely on the tribunal award. Both states have placed their say before the tribunal.”

The tribunal is set to deliver a verdict in a few months.
