Kerala Minister Has A Message For IT Companies In Bengaluru Over Water ‘crisis’ | English News The water crisis in Bengaluru has triggered a row between Karnataka and Kerala.Following Kerala Industries Minister P. Rajeeve’s overtures to Information Technology (IT) firms in the city to relocate to his State in the backdrop of the water crisis, M.B. Patil, Minister for Commerce and Industries, and Infrastructure Development, hit out at the Kerala government saying, “attempts to take undue advantage of the water scarcity situation is detrimental to the federal structure of the country.”“Many parts of India, including Kerala have been reeling under water scarcity due to drought and severe summer. In such a situation, the offer extended by the Kerala Industries Minister for the Bengaluru-based companies to shift their workspaces to that State does not depict the healthy competitive spirit,” Mr. Patil said.
