Section 144 enforced citywide – gatherings of more than 5 people not permitted. Dial 112 for any help. Additional police will be deployed for maintaining law and order.”

On Monday, Janata Dal-Secular (JDS) MP HD Deve Gowda sent a letter to PM Modi and requested him to set up a team to study water and crop situation in Karnataka amid the ongoing water dispute.

He said, “I have made an appeal to the PM on the prevailing situation. In my letter to the PM, I wrote that the Jal Shakti department should file a review petition and a committee of experts should be sent to Karnataka to study the water and standing crop situation. I requested the same to the Vice President of the country. ”
