Amid war of words between Odisha and Chhattisgarh over sharing of Mahanadi water, the Water Resources ministry has asked the Odisha government to suggest possible dates for a tripartite meeting to resolve the issue.

The meeting is expected to be attended by Chief Ministers of both the states.

Water Resources Minister Uma Bharati convened the meeting after a BJP-delegation led by Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan met her in New Delhi on the 24th of last month.
