HomeMumbaiMaharashtra: Karnataka CM's move to lay a claim on Jat tehsil in
Sangli district sparks political controversy


MAHARASHTRA: KARNATAKA CM'S MOVE TO LAY A CLAIM ON JAT TEHSIL IN SANGLI DISTRICT
SPARKS POLITICAL CONTROVERSY


OPPOSITION PARTIES HAVE STRONGLY CONDEMNED MR BOMMAI’S STATEMENT SAYING THAT
THIS WON’T BE TOLERATED BY THE PEOPLE FROM MAHARASHTRA.

Mumbai: Days after Maharashtra CM Mr Eknath Shinde chaired the maiden meeting of
the reconstituted high power committee on Maharashtra Karnataka Border Dispute,
the Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai’s statement that his government is
“seriously considering" laying a claim on the Jat tehsil in Sangli district has
sparked a major political controversy.  

Bommai on Tuesday claimed that panchayats in Jat taluka of Maharashtra had
passed a resolution in the past to merge with Karnataka when there was a severe
drought situation and acute drinking water crisis, and his government has
evolved schemes to help them by providing water. The state government is
seriously considering it.

Opposition party slam Bommai

Opposition parties have strongly condemned Mr Bommai’s statement saying that
this won’t be tolerated by the people from Maharashtra. 

Leader of Opposition in the state assembly Mr Ajit Pawar said the people of
Maharashtra did not like Mr Bommai’s statement. ‘’Chief Minister of Karnataka
belongs to BJP. Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Mr Devendra Fadnavis is from
BJP. The state government should sit together and clearly tell the people what
is its position regarding Maharashtra,’’ he noted.

Mr Pawar demanded clarification from the Chief Minister and deputy CM over
Karnataka CM Mr Basavraj Bommai’s claims that villages in Jat tehsil of Sangli
were a part of Karnataka.

Ploy to divide Maharashtra- Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray & Sanjay Raut

Shiv Sena Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray MP Mr Sanjay Raut alleged that there was a
ploy to divide Maharashtra. The Maharashtra Legislative Council Deputy
Chairperson and Shiv Sena UBT deputy leader Ms Neelam Gorhe has emphasised the
need for the Centre’s intervention in view of the Karnataka government’s
‘’irresponsible’’ stand.

The Deputy Chief Minister Mr Devendra Fadnavis declared that not a single
village will go to Karnataka or anywhere. ‘’The Jat resolution discussed was
passed in 2012. It is an old proposal. We have not received any new proposal
from Karnataka. Maharashtra’s stand on claiming Carvar, Nippani and Belagavi was
non-negotiable, We will fight for our stand within the legal framework in the
Supreme Court,’’ he said. He further noted that the state government was
“committed to acquiring” Marathi-speaking villages along the border.

However, the Maharashtra Excise Minister Mr Shabhuraj Desai, who is the member
of the high power committee, said that Mr Bommai’s statement should not be taken
seriously.  "As Maharashtra has reconstituted its team to take forward the
Karnataka border dispute in the Supreme Court, Bommai has come up with some
ridiculous old demand. It should not be taken seriously. The villages in Jat
tehsil of Sangli district had reportedly passed a resolution more than a decade
back to pressurise the then state government to address their demand of water
supply for irrigation from the Krishna river. However, there is no such official
documentation or resolution of those villages available with the Maharashtra
government which was passed some years back," he said.

“As per my information, the Maharashtra government has already cleared a
proposal to supply water for irrigation to the arid regions of Jat tehsil in
Sangli. The cost of the project is around Rs 1,200 crore. A technical scrutiny
of the project is underway. It means those villages will definitely get water
from Maharashtra,” Mr Desai said.

Promises by CM Shinde

Chief Minister Mr Eknath Shinde had promised pension to freedom fighters from
Belagavi and other parts being claimed by Maharashtra.

The Maharashtra government on Tuesday appointed cabinet members Mr Chandrakant
Patil and Mr Shambhuraj Desai as nodal ministers to coordinate with the legal
team regarding the court case on the border dispute with Karnataka.

This is not the first time the political leaders from Maharashtra and Karnataka
came face-to-face on the long pending border issue. During the Shiv Sena-led
Maha Vikas Aghadi government, the former Chief Minister Mr Uddhav Thackeray
accused the Karnataka government of deliberately changing the name of the
disputed region of Belgaum in the state. He said the Maharashtra government will
approach the Supreme Court to the region as Union Territory till the matter is
in court. ‘’Despite the matter being in court, Karnataka Govt has deliberately
changed the name of the disputed region of Belgaum. Looking at atrocities of
Marathi speaking people in that area, our Govt will approach SC to declare that
part as Union Territory till the matter is in court," Mr Thackeray had said.

Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Mr Laxman Savadi mocked Maharashtra Chief
Minister Uddhav Thackeray over the Belgaum dispute, requesting the Central
government to declare Mumbai as a Union Territory. ‘’Mumbai should be included
in Karnataka. Until that is done, I request the Central government to declare
Mumbai as a Union Territory," news agency ANI quoted Karnataka Deputy CM as
saying.
