Odisha has said this would adversely affect the interests of its farmers.<\/p>\n<p>Additional Solicitor General A N S Nadkarni, representing the Centre, referred to a 1983 agreement between Madhya Pradesh and Odisha and said there was a mechanism to deal with the issue.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are disappointed at this. We were told that you will issue a notification,&#8221; the bench said, adding &#8220;you had made a statement that a notification will be issued for constitution of a tribunal. You had made this statement before the court.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When the Centre told the court that Odisha was not coming forward for negotiation in the matter, the bench observed, &#8220;failure of negotiation has nothing to do with it. Odisha is saying they do not want to negotiate. If they are not coming forward, it is failure of negotiation&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Nadkarni told the bench that they had already filed a written statement before the court in the matter and a mechanism already existed.<\/p>\n<p>The counsel representing Odisha told the court that no negotiation could be done in the matter and a tribunal should be constituted.<\/p>\n<p>Chhattisgarh&#8217;s counsel countered the submissions of Odisha and said they do not want a tribunal in the matter and, as per the 1983 agreement, a mechanism was already there which should be exercised.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We do not see any valid purpose in you (Centre) resisting the appointment of tribunal,&#8221; the bench told the Centre.<\/p>\n<p>However, when the Centre said it would argue the matter, the bench posted the case for hearing on January 16.<\/p>\n<p>In its written statement before the court, the Centre has said that the ongoing dispute should be sorted out through negotiations between the concerned parties.<\/p>\n<p>The Centre has also said they were in the process of finalising a bill to constitute a composite tribunal which would deal with all the inter-state river water disputes in the country.<\/p>\n<p>The Inter-State River Water Disputes (Amendment) Bill 2017 was introduced in Lok Sabha by the Minister of Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation Uma Bharti on March 14 this year.<\/p>\n<p>The Bill proposes to set up an Inter-State River Water Disputes Tribunal, for adjudication of water disputes, if a dispute is not resolved through the Disputes Resolution Committee.<\/p>\n<p>The Odisha government had moved the court in December last year seeking an order asking Chhattisgarh to stop its construction work in projects on the upstream of Mahanadi.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Supreme Court today told the Centre that there was &#8220;no valid purpose&#8221; in resisting the setting up of a tribunal to deal with the dispute between Odisha and Chhattisgarh over the Mahanadi river water-sharing dispute.
