Kaveri: Where it all started

Historically, the dispute over sharing Kaveri waters dates back to the British era. The dispute between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu over sharing Kaveri neared a solution when the 2 warring sides, Mysore princely state and Madras Presidency reached an agreement in 1924.
Mysore was permitted to build a dam at Kannambadi village to trap 44.8 thousand million cubic feet of water. The agreement was to be valid for 50 years and a review thereafter was part of the agreement.
Not willing to accept the agreement, the 2 states took the dispute to the Supreme Court after Independence on several occasions but the matter could not be resolved.
Mysore, named Karnataka after Independence, asked Tamil Nadu seeking permission to make changes to various clauses after 12 years of Independence. However, Tamil Nadu refused to do so, saying they can be addressed only when the agreement runs out in 1974.
In the 1970s, Kaveri Fact Finding Committee found that Tamil Nadu's irrigation lands had grown from an area of 14,40,000 acres to 25,80,000 acres, resulting in an increased demand of water for Tamil Nadu.
A study conducted by the central government in 1972 said the utilization of water from Kaveri in Tamil Nadu was 438 one thousand million cubic feet ( TMC ft) against Karnataka's 177 TMC ft.
As both states refused to agree through talks, the Centre constituted the Kaveri Water Tribunal in 1990. After hearing both sides for years, the Tribunal in its final award in 2007 gave 417 TMC ft for Tamil Nadu and 270 TMC ft for Karnataka. Kerala was awarded 30 TMC ft and Pondicherry 7 TMC ft.
Both governments challenged the decision in the Supreme Court.

Propeller Ads- Best alternative for AdSense (in terms of customer service)

Propeller Ads  is one of the best service out their who are the best in terms of customer service they use chatbots but, while the customers executive is online they very responsive and for people like me who don't know where to insert the code they gave it was like a wish come true. I have seen a lot of services but, I should say that I'm very impressed in there customer service, which is one of the best methods to adapt in order to get great customer experience and customer retention. This is the reason why?? I'm repeatedly saying about the customer service like a crazy person. Propeller Ads  mostly give you pop-under ads and also interstitial ads. I would advice you to choose interstitial ads as they don't disturb your reader. Sometimes users get pissed-up will never return to your blog again. Customer retention is a must.  The best case is that you don't need an awful lot of traffic in your site the minimum traffic like 3,000 pages views are more or less enoug

I really love Google AdSense which maybe the best in the industry but, there are a lot of guidelines to be followed when it comes to Google AdSense and you can't to do whatever you want in your blog. Sometimes Google warns some and after sometime you can be even banned for certain problems. This isn't the end of the world I have read I many blogs that Google AdSense generates only a small part of the income which their are having (especially if you are from India, Pakistan, Malaysia, etc.,). All of them are into affiliate marketing like Amazon, Flipkart, eBay, Snapdeal, etc., Specially, Amazon has one of the largest affiliate marketing program. However, affiliate marketing is stuff you have to put hours and hours of work into it. If someone says its easy don't believe them. Being said you can't except earnings without hard work. Like the central theorem of financial literacy which is "There is no such thing as a free lunch." In the context of financial investm

Experts take on Reusable Rockets

It should be noted that there are many people in the space industry who doubt reusable rockets will work, in large part because of the stress the machines and the metal go through during launch. It's not clear that the most prized customers will even consider the reused spacecraft for launches due to their inherent risks. This is a big reason that other countries and have not pursued the technology. There's a camp of space experts who think Musk is flat-out wasting his time, and that engineering calculation already prove the reusable rockets to be a fool's errand.
