The Supreme Court in its interim order on Thursday allowed the plea of the Karnataka Government for implementation of the final award by a tribunal for sharing of water between Goa, Karnataka and Maharashtra from the Mahadayi river.
The interim order was passed by a Bench comprising Justice DY Chandrachud and Justice Hemant Gupta after hearing the counsel from the three States. The Bench said the final hearing in the matter will take place in July.
It also said the interim order is subject to the final outcome of the petitions filed by the three States against the tribunal’s award.
