BD opposes building 2 dams in Meghalaya

Correct. I have visited that forum before and people over there are much more balanced in their views, unlike the completely polarized views(mostly jamati leaning for obvious reason) you get here. Actually once @kobiraaz asked me about it, I didn't reveal it then as I didn't want that place to be swarmed by internet jamatis.

I have an account there... In Bangladesh forums, blog people dont talk much, their Ip addresses can be traced easily..

And Mods dont allow such discussions

Sonar bangla blog admin is in Jail for allowing anti-govt discussion...

Lol any IP address is easy to get, you just need to ask the isp to monitor traffic to a particular site.

And anyway you lot hound away any Awami leaning poster who joins this forum. It's strange that madx still survives.

You think your IP can't be traced if you post on PDF? About mods not allowing such discussions, well people are discussing the current issues but not many hardliners post there. But I won't be surprised if that changes from now on ;)

You do know many people were arrested in Bangladesh for online posting about Hasina??? Why cricket forum?? go to amarblog, shocholayoton, nagorik blog..... You will feel like little India.........
 
Chinese are building Dams and last time i checked they haven't even listened to BD. Here you are speaking about trust blah.. blah...

which is laughable, India is building dams on its side just like china.

The truth is, China cannot harm us even if it wishes to do so by building the dam north of Arunachal. It will have to release water so that the power plants north of A'nachal generate electricity. So, if water is released in winter from the reservoir, it will certainly flow down to the land of Bengal naturally. Unless India steals this water, there is no way a Chinese dam will hurt us.

Note, BD has always asked India and Nepal to build similar reservoirs in Nepal, 2/3rd of power produced to be bought by BD and India. But, India does not show its willingness to this proposal.

So what is the solution, India should belay all such projects and not develop its infrastructure? We too have extended offers of co-development and joint-studies and designing without any tangible reply from the GOB. So where does a practical solution exist according to you sir.

Practical Solution exists.

Just Build The DAMS.

Period.

Any Other Question??

That's strange for a country like Bangladesh situated right there in middle of middle east! But the Arabs of Bangladesh have left on stones unturned to convert this place as they seem fit! :tup:

Meghalaya allays Dhaka fears - State mulls dams over Umiew, Myntdu rivers to combat power crisis

Shillong, April 10: Meghalaya today sought to allay fears expressed by neighbouring Bangladesh over the proposed construction of two hydel power projects on rivers located near the international border.
With the power crisis deepening, the state has proposed to construct two dams - the Mawphu hydroelectric project stage-I and stage-II in East Khasi Hills over the Umiew river and the Myntdu-Leshka hydroelectric project stage-II in Jaintia hills region over the Myntdu river.
In January this year, Bangladesh had strongly opposed the proposed construction of the projects as it feared that the construction of the dams could have an adverse impact in areas falling within its territory.
The state government had received a missive from the Union water resources ministry enclosing a letter from a member of the Joint Rivers Commission, Bangladesh, on the Mawphu and Myntdu dams.
It stated that both the dams are on the common rivers between Bangladesh and India and hence construction of the dams may have an adverse impact on various sectors in Bangladesh because of change of flow regime of the Umiew and Myntdu rivers.
Replying to a call attention motion moved by West Shillong legislator Paul Lyngdoh, state power minister Clement Marak said the member of the commission had also requested not to proceed with the construction of the two dams until impact assessment on various sectors in Bangladesh had been jointly conducted. Water-sharing agreements of the two common rivers have been signed between the two countries.
Further, Marak said the Union water resources ministry had also requested the state government to send complete information, including the environmental impact assessment studies and environment management plan (EIA-EMP), if any, along with the status of these projects, and views of the state government on the subject.
The Meghalaya Energy Corporation Ltd informed the ministry that it had taken up the survey and investigation works of Myntdu dam, stage II, which is located near the Bangladesh border.
"The project is planned as a run-of-river scheme and as such there will be no impoundment of water. The flow regime of those rivers will, therefore, not be affected. At present, environmental impact assessment studies had not been taken up yet for the project," Marak said while further quoting from what the corporation had written to the ministry.
On the other hand, the North Eastern Electric Power Corporation Ltd (Neepco), in a separate letter, informed the ministry that as per the pre-feasibility report it had prepared, the Mawphu project is a run-of-river type development. It has marginal live pondage of 1.12 million cubic metres only and as such the project shall utilise mostly the available discharge in the river.
White paper demand
UDP legislator Paul Lyngdoh today told the Meghalaya government that the Myntdu-Leshka hydel project was a "fit case" for a CBI inquiry while demanding a "white paper" on the project.
During question hour, Lyngdoh pointed out that the total cost of the project had escalated to Rs 965 crore against the original estimated cost of Rs 360.08 crore.
The foundation stone for the project was laid by former President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam in 2002 while the actual construction of the dam commenced in May 2004.
The three-fold jump in the project expenditure was mainly because of the cost and time overrun.
Lyngdoh stated that as per the Comptroller and Auditor- General's report, the project has seen a 102 per cent escalation in construction cost, thereby, rendering it unviable.
"This project is a fit case for a CBI inquiry in view of the irregularities pointed out in the CAG report," the legislator said. He wanted to know whether the irregularities had any adverse impact on the project cost.
Power minister Clement Marak, however, said the project was still viable in spite of cost escalation.
Marak further said that the amount of power generated from the project till date was 220.82 million units while during the lean period the power generation was 10MW.
At the same time, Lyngdoh asked the power minister to come up with a white paper on the entire project.
The first of the three units of the project was formally inaugurated in February 2012 by chief minister Mukul M. Sangma.

which country do this for another country??your almighty China doesn't even care to let us know about the dams we are building..
 
I am speech less.one single article about India postponing building dam and so many Indians suddenly swarming BD forum.funny we don't see any thing about the harmful discussed by India in BD discussed by Indians this frequently. But the bottom line here is India postponed not stop the project.(in light of today's political position of AL its what the probhu of AL can do for them to appease the mass in BD)they will eventually build the damn dam in the future weather it kills our water source or not.
