Karnataka to declare drought affected areas by end of August

The record

Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.

Karnataka Chief Minister D.K.
Shivakumar said the state will declare its drought-hit taluks by the end of August, after which the Revenue Department will compile a list of rain-deficient regions based on NDRF norms and ministers' ground reports, with final approval by the Cabinet.
The state has so far received only 35% of its normal rainfall, though Cauvery catchment areas have seen rain while places like Mandya, Mysuru and Bengaluru have not.
The Chief Minister said he has sought a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to seek the Centre's help, and the PM has promised time after the Parliament session ends.
The declaration matters because it determines which regions qualify for drought relief assistance.
