Karnataka, Goa Dispute Escalates Over Mahadayi River Project

Karnataka and Goa are arguing about a river called Mahadayi, which is important for both states.

Karnataka wants to build a project to divert some of the river's water to provide drinking water.

Goa is against this because they worry it will harm their environment.

The leaders from both states are disagreeing publicly.

Karnataka's leader says they will go ahead with the project, while Goa's leader thinks the project won't get approved.

They have already had a decision about how much water each state can use, but they're still arguing about the project.
