The union government decided to bring the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) under the Ministry of Jal Shakti.
Earlier it was under the Ministry of Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation.
The Central Government notified the Cauvery Water Management Scheme on June, 2018 constituting the ‘Cauvery Water Management Authority’ and the ‘Cauvery Water Regulation Committee’ (CWRC).
The CWRC is to ensure that the Tribunal's order is carried out in due spirit.
