Tamil Nadu Minister R. Nirmalkumar stated that no official decision has been made regarding Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay's proposed visit to Karnataka for Cauvery water talks. The Tamil Nadu government is reviewing options, including legal action or dialogue, due to Karnataka's non-compliance with Cauvery Water Management Authority directives. The minister emphasized the issue's impact on farmers' livelihoods and clarified that complaints about inflated electricity bills were related to routine verifications, not widespread billing errors.
