The BJP in Karnataka is strongly criticising the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government for releasing water to Tamil Nadu.
But, the BJP did that same when its leader Jagadish Shettar was the Karnataka Chief Minister back in 2013

Check out this video - where the then BJP chief minister of Karnataka Jagadish Shettar spoke in 2013 - after deciding to release water to Tamil Nadu as per the court order.

When compared to the words used by the current Congress chief minister Siddaramaiah, we leave it to our readers to see if there is any difference in the sentiments - if not the words itself. Have a look:

Currently, amid protests, Karnataka has started releasing Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu complying with the Supreme Court directive asking it to release 15,000 cusecs per day to the neighbouring state for ten days.
