Tamil Nadu Teachers Federation (TNTF) state president S Muthusamy recently stated that they have planned to send 10 lakh postcards to the PM in support of Cauvery Management Board (CMB).

He said, “The whole state has come together and protests are being held at various places. The federation too has decided to write to the prime minister emphasising this. A total of 10 lakh post cards have been planned to be posted in the next one week. Over 50,000 members of TNTF across various schools would get the post cards handwritten by fellow teachers, government employees and general public propagating the message.

Muthusamy  added, “Cauvery is also the major source of drinking water for a majority of the people in the state apart from being critical to farming. The Union government must take a decision steering clear of the political gains to be made in Karnataka.”
