Tamil actor-turned-politician Kamal Haasan on Monday met Karnataka Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy and discussed the issue of Cauvery river water sharing with neighbouring Tamil Nadu. Kumaraswamy told reporters here: "We (Kamal and I) discussed the issue of the (Cauvery) Water Management Board. Both Karnataka and Tamil Nadu maintain a cordial relationship over the Cauvery issue and it will be solved through mutual understanding." The Central government on June 1 notified the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) to implement the sharing of water between the southern states. "Farmers of both Karnataka and Tamil Nadu are equally important," the Chief Minister said after meeting the Makkal Needhi Maiam party chief at his home office. Kamal said the water sharing issue can be resolved if the states come together for dialogue. "Court should be the last resort. If the people of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka come together, the issue can be resolved," he said. Tamil Nadu would like to see the setting up of the CWMA expedited, he added.

Bhaiyyuji Maharaj, a Madhya Pradesh-based spiritual guru who had prominent followers from different political parties, committed suicide on Tuesday by shooting himself at his residence. The 50-year-old guru, who was recently given the status of a Minister of State by the government in a controversial decision which he had declined, died after he was admitted to a hospital in a critical condition. "Bhaiyyuji Maharaj has shot himself at his residence at Khandwa Road here," said Indore's Deputy Inspector General Harinarayanachari Mishra, who had earlier termed the guru's condition as critical and that doctors are monitoring the situation.  The reason behind the attempted suicide was not known, he had said. Reports said that Maharaj shot himself in the head and was immediately rushed to the hospital but efforts to save his life failed.
