*The Cavery river , its waters , the dispute and the award by the tribunal*.



Some features : Groundwater is not accounted for nor allotted.

The final allotment seems as follows



Kerala 30 TMC
Karnataka 284.75 TMC
Tamil Nadu 404.25 TMC
Pondicherry 7 TMC

The change from the decision of the Cauvery water tribunal is only for the run-off from Karnataka to Tamil Nadu. While the tribunal had said Karnataka should keep 270 Tmc and release 192 Tmc from its reservoirs and river waters , the Supreme Court has said that Karnataka can keep 284.75 TMC and must release 177. 25 Tmc to Tamil Nadu . This release from Karnataka along with releases from Kerala means that Tamil Nadus share is 404.25 TMC with a 50 % probable flows in the river. I’m 



The distress sharing formula and its management is still not clear and one will wait for the detailed Supreme Court order.
