What we know
The Mekedatu and Mahadayi water projects are stuck in inter-state disputes. The Mahadayi (Kalasa–Banduri) diversion, meant to supply drinking water to Hubballi–Dharwad, has been promised for decades.
Open questions
- Where does each project stand with the tribunals, the courts and environmental clearance?
- How much has been spent on each project so far?
- Where does Hubballi–Dharwad get its drinking water today, and how much does it lack in summer?
