On August 3, Tamil Nadu CM Vijay was supposed to come to Bangalore, Karnataka to meet CM D K Shivakumar to discuss the long-drawn Cauvery Water dispute. The visit was termed as a historic moment to resolve the dispute. However, on Friday Shivakumar requested Vijay to cancel his visit saying the atmosphere is not right for the meeting.Since the meeting was announced, several organisations have been protesting.
