HDK declines to comment on Karuna's denial
Bangalore,
Mar
21:
Karnataka
Chief
Minister
H
D
Kumaraswamy
today
refrained
from
making
any
statement
with
regard
to
his
discussion
with
Tamil
Nadu
Chief
Minister
M
Karunanidhi
on
the
Cauvery
river
water
issue.
When
newsmen
brought
to
his
notice
about
the
reported
views
of
Mr
Karunanidhi
that
he
had
not
spoken
to
his
Karnataka
counterpart
on
the
Cauvery
issue,
he
said
he
did
not
want
to
react
as
it
was
a
sensitive
issue.
" Wait
for
three
or
four
days
I
will
come
back
with
an
appropriate
reply",
he
added.
He
said
issuing
counter
statement
might
vitiate
the
atmosphere
and
nothing
was
final
in
making
efforts
to
resolve
the
issue.
"
I
will
make
my
best
efforts
to
solve
the
problem,"
he
assured.
The
Chief
Minister's
reaction
came
hours
after
Mr
Karunanidhi
denied
that
he
spoke
to
Mr
Kumaraswamy
about
the
Cauvery
issue.
