CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa on Friday accused the Centre of continuing to adopt a "negative approach" on various issues including the power front and the contentious Cauvery River water issue."It is the same approach that it (Centre) is adopting even in the Mullaperiyar River issue", she said at a marriage function in the city.
"I wanted to fulfill my people's requirement. Is it possible? How many hurdles the centre is creating. It is also usurping the state's rights", she said. Stating that the Centre was also continuously reducing the quantum of kerosene allocation for the state, Jayalalithaa said her repeated letters to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh fetched only routine acknowledgement that it has been received.
"We have to overcome all these hurdles and challenges. I am working with a resolve to secure the states' rights," she said pledging to achieve them with people's support Jayalalithaa also pointed out that the Centre has remained silent on convening the CRA meeting and it was only at the intervention of the Supreme Court that the state got "some" water from Karnataka.
