Karnataka will field senior advocate Kapil Sibal to argue its stand on the Cauvery water dispute case in the Supreme Court on Tuesday.
The court will hear the issue of constituting the Cauvery Management Board on Tuesday.
The court has also directed the state to inform it whether the order on release water to Tamil Nadu has been complied with.
Though Karnataka had earlier approached Sibal, he reportedly suggested to the state to comply with the apex court order before he took up the case. With the state legislature on Monday agreeing to release water to farmers by modifying its earlier resolution that water will be released only for drinking, Sibal agreed to argue for the state.
The government decided to engage the services of Sibal as Karnataka's legal team head and senior counsel Fali S Nariman on September 30 sought the Supreme Court's permission to relieve him from making submission for Karnataka as the state was not complying the highest court's order on releasing Cauvery water.
SC order
On September 30, the Supreme Court had directed Karnataka to discharge 6,000 cusecs water from October 1-6.
