Who owns flood water on river in case of dispute between states? SC to examine

Telangana has challenged Andhra Pradesh's Polavaram-Banakacherla Link Project in the Supreme Court, arguing it unilaterally utilizes inter-state river water. Telangana claims AP's projects, disguised as flood water utilization, violate the Godavari Water Disputes Tribunal award and reduce its water share. The state seeks to halt AP's tendering and expansion works.
