Which river is often in the news due to a water-sharing dispute between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Kaveri

The correct answer is Kaveri, also written as Cauvery. The governing concept is the association of major Indian rivers with their basins, states and inter-state water use. The Kaveri rises in Karnataka, flows through Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, and its waters are also important to adjoining regions. Because rainfall varies seasonally and the river is heavily used for irrigation, drinking water and other needs, sharing its waters has repeatedly required negotiation and legal decisions. Vaigai is mainly associated with Tamil Nadu, Pennar flows through parts of southern India but is not the river famous for this dispute, and Periyar is chiefly associated with Kerala. Therefore, option A is unambiguous.
