The Supreme Court has also asked the Centre to file an affidavit regarding the matter, scheduling the next hearing for May 8.
A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra directed the Centre to apprise the court on May 8 on the steps taken for setting up of Cauvery Management Board and sternly asked the Karnataka government to see how much water can be released to Tamil Nadu.
During the hearing, the top court had repeatedly told Tamil Nadu that it agrees with its grievances and criticised the Centre for not acting swiftly to frame a scheme.
On hearing arguments made by both sides, the Supreme has said that political reasons can not be accepted for delay in formation of scheme.
Attorney general K K Venugopal told the court that the scheme has to be approved by the Cabinet which could not meet because of non-availability of PM, who after coming from foreign visit has gone to Karnataka for election campaign.

The Centre had submitted that notifying the constitution of CMB during the time when Assembly elections in Karnataka had been announced would lead to massive public outrage, create serious law and order problem and may vitiate the election process.
The court said the authorities are required to ensure peace till it peruses the draft scheme and finalises it for proper distribution of Cauvery water.
AG requested the court to postpone the hearing on this issue to after May 12, the date for Karnataka assembly elections.
The Supreme Court had cut 14.75 thousand million cubic feet of water from Tamil Nadu and allocated it to Karnataka, increasing its share of Cauvery water from 270 to 284.75 thousand million cubic feet.
The Supreme Court also directed the Karnataka government to immediately release 4 tmc of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu. The Tamil Nadu government had filed a petition to the Supreme Court saying the Centre had committed contempt of court by failing to follow the Supreme Court's order to set up the CMB by March 31.
