The Water Distribution Issue Is Politicised And Beyond Understanding- Sunil Tatkare

While the drought situation in the Maharashtra state is at its peak, the water-related matter is seeking the attention of the masses. The Maharashtra State Government has accepted the proposal of Maharashtra State Krishna Valley Development Corporation and according to this proposal, an immediate decision will be taken to stop diversion of additional water from the Nira Deoghar dam to Baramati and Indapur Talukas. Senior NCP leader Shree Sunil Tatkare gave feedback on this news and he said that this decision is beyond his understanding.

Mr Sunil Tatkare spoke that the decision taken by the Water Resources Department is beyond his understanding. Mr Sunil Tatkare seems disappointed with this decision and compared the decision of the Water Resources Department with the previous decisions taken during his tenure.

Honourable Mr Sunil Tatkare said that in the previous government tenure also, these types of decisions were taken during canal committee meetings. But elected representatives never complained about water distribution policies of west-flowing rivers or Nira Deoghar Dam. During his tenure, equitable distribution of water was considered. This decision indicates that water distribution issue is politicised and its reason is beyond understanding.

The feedback given by Honourable Mr Sunil Tatkare on the water distribution matter clearly indicates that he is highly disappointed with the decision. The State Water Resources Department has ignored Baramati and vicinity for water distribution. Baramati belt is influenced by NCP founder Honourable Mr Sharad Pawar and the strategy of the BJP Government to trouble NCP eminent is prominently noticed here. NCP Regional President, Mr Sunil Tatkare had been the Water Resources Minister for the state and he has taken many betterment decisions during his tenure. Even he worked hard to resolve the water scarcity issue of the Konkan region by different dam and canal projects. In this situation, the statement of the seasoned leader, Mr Sunil Tatkare is significant — ‘water distribution issue is politicised’. This statement underlines that it is not the matter of only water distribution, or justice to a particular area with equal water distribution but, this matter is being utilised as a way to minimise the influence of the NCP and to apply politics in the wrong way.

NCP Regional President Shree Sunil Tatkare has been elected as the Member of Parliament in the recent Lok Sabha election. His immediate feedback on the water distribution matter demonstrates his concern for social issues and his willingness to work for Maharashtra people. It also emphasises that Shree Sunil Tatkare has been one of the prime pillars of the NCP and he deserves to be the same and he will always keep an eye on Maharashtra matters instead of getting engaged only in the centre.
