Decision of the Cauvery River Authority was ruled out by the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on 8 October 2012. The Prime Minister ordered Karnataka to release 9000 cusecs of water to Tamil Nadu every day, till 20 October 2012.

The Prime Minister in response to his meet with the Congress Union Ministers namely S.M. Krishna, M. Mallikarjun Kharge and K.H. Muniyappa along with 16 members of Parliament from BJP came to a conclusion that the decision will be made following the findings of the ground reality from the Cauvery Monitoring Committee. The committee is going to meet in the third week of October. As the decision making lies in the hands of the CRA, so the Prime Minister due to lack of mechanism cannot make any changes in the award.
