Haryana chief minister M L Khattar has reportedly said such matters cannot be resolved so fast. Meanwhile, the Haryana government on Tuesday filed an application in the Delhi high court, asking for directions to be issued to Delhi Jal Board to stop lifting water for its Dwarka plant.
"The chief minister has said water-sharing is a complex issue and that Haryana has problems with Rajasthan as well that limits the availability of water in the state. While Haryana is trying to give water to Delhi, it cannot assure that the Capital's demands will be met. Meanwhile, Khattar has also suggested that talks should continue between the two states," said a source.
While describing the response as "vague", Delhi government sources said the city would persist with its demands. Not being able to operate the Dwarka plant may become a huge embarrassment for the government which only recently inaugurated the plant. "Delhi has paid a few hundred crores for the construction of the Munak canal, so why should it not get the benefit of the new channel. On one hand the CM says that talks should continue, and on the other, they have asked the court to stop Delhi from lifting water. Lakhs of residents of Dwarka and neighbouring areas have been dependent on this water and now Haryana is playing games over it," said sources.
Recently-appointed vice-chairman of DJB, Kapil Mishra, said: "The Haryana government is backing down on its promise, which is very unfortunate. Before elections they had promised that they would release 719 cusecs for Delhi from the Munak canal. Now, they say they won't release more than 450 cusecs. What is more shocking is that the Haryana government is pleading with the court to get the Dwarka plant shut down. We have full faith in the court that it will do justice. BJP should not indulge in such low-level politics after it lost the election."
