I got a report on another person who died. Let me clarify he did not die in lathi charge or firing. He slipped and fell," Siddaramaiah said.
We had sought modification of the September 5 order. We told the SC that we cannot release 15,000 cusecs of water. After yesterday's arguments SC said release 12,000 cusecs until September 20th.
This is a difficult order to follow" Siddaramaiah says.
