CHAMARAJANAGAR: The police arrested many activists of the Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha, Hasirusene, Hogenakkal Jalapatha, Nela, Jala Ulisi Horata Samiti, Bahujan Samaj Party, Tamil Karnataka Sanga, Dalit Sangharsha Samiti and Kannada organisations here on Thursday when they attempted to lay siege to the office of Deputy Commissioner demanding that the State Government take steps to prevent Tamil Nadu from implement a drinking water project on the disputed island at Hogenakkal. They were released later.
A procession led by president of the district unit of the KRRS Mahesh Prabhu, Hogenakkal Ulisi Horata Samiti president Prabhuraje Urs and leaders of various Kannada organisations was taken out from the Travellers’ Bungalow to the Deputy Commissioner’s office.
The activists blocked the national highway 209 for some time at Bhuvaneshwari Circle.

He alleged that the Government of Tamil Nadu had opposed many irrigation projects of the State in the Cauvery basin.
