And added to that, the protest is not happening only from yesterday for IPL or during IPL. Its happening for the past 10 days in different format and in different ways.

But one important question remain unanswered, Why protest in front of a private Cricket league owned by 8 private companies after all neither BCCI nor those 8 private companies are controlling Cavery water and BCCI is also not a Govt body ? People should protest in front of President/PM/CM/Governor office who have the power to control water.

Someone who support this Protest against CSK/IPL should answer this first

The reason is that though the protest is happening for the past 10 days, no national media covered or spoke about the issue until yesterday where all the news channels were showing Breaking News and then started discussing about the issue when there was protest against IPL. And yes, there is a huge protest planned against PM when he arrives here at Chennai tomorrow. And the media showed only the protest around the stadium, but even yesterday there were protests happened at many places in Tamilnadu which was not shown in national media.

So basically you are saying that Protesters were not getting any media attention until they block IPL throw shoe at players so they did that. In a single word Publicity stunt. But Sadly they forget that it creates a bad image for TN people. So sad

Nope. Basically the Central Government is not obeying the final verdict of the Supreme Court and is not ready to frame the Cauvery Management Board though there was a time frame given to them was 6 weeks and in the last min, they went to the supreme court requesting for clarification for the word called scheme. There by playing with peoples life of Tamilnadu. You will not understand this unless you are one of us. For others it is just a news. For us its life. I do farming and i knew the necessity of water and the importance of water and so i protest and the protest would go into many forms and yesterdays protest is one of that.

I am not saying that the protest is wrong, People are not getting their water and they have the right to protest. But what i am saying is that the path which protesters choose to follow to get media attention and publicity is wrong.

If Central Govt is not listening then protest/Dharna should happen in front of Governor office or PM office/Residence. Isn't it ? If they did that like what Anna Hazare/Kejriwal did then I am sure they will get their required media attention and they don't need to throw shoe at players

Bro protest is there from farmers even on Jantar Mantar and many places like Anna did before many years yet due to the One sided media the issue was not taken seriouslyThis is from April 1,2017
This is from Sept,11

So protest is only to get media attention and not to achieve goal. No media attention so protest postponed and everyone is back to TN.

Why did they withdraw protest without achieving Goal ? What kind of protest is it ? It seems these protesters are not even serious about their demand, they only want to come on to TV

Yesterday's Protestors main chorus was We are in a emotional moment they liken it to death in our homes in Tamilnadu due to Uncertainty over Cauvery Water Sharing.So when a death in our home will you dance and watch cricket and enjoy asking it to other Cricket Fans from TN who were their neighbours.

Yesterday protest is a kind of Protest against Modi and Indian Sovereignty led by Tamil Nationalist ideologists,this is not new in Tamil Land it has deep historical roots starting from Anti Hindi Agitation,Tamil Eelam (LTTE Movement) and recent Jallikattu protest everything due to a big Political Vacuum left by Late CM & ageing Former CM.

Exactly 1000% agree with you. Other state people will never understand our problem so better not to explain the problem who is in blindly in favor of center

Definitely not. So are you saying that all over TN all form of entertainment is now closed in support of protest ? No TV entertainment, No Movie in TV as well as in theater/ multiplex, No music/dance festival throughout TN, No marriage/ birthday celebration ? No celebration for any festival all over TN ?
