Diamer Bhasha Dam: Russia wants to take up project without bidding

[Major Sam]

Are you talking about Indian Kashmir??

Following is a example where chinese are investing US$ 200 million to build road in Indian Kashmir with the joint venture with Indian partner.

It will help India to have better connectivity with all parts of the Jammu and Kashmir

This is indeed a good development. India will definitely want Russians to stay away from this project and will use their diplomatic clout to have them reconsider. This new Pak-Russia relationship is very interesting indeed.

From defence deals to economic, its sounding very fruitful for Pakistan. And of course, Russia has their own benefits. Interesting times ahead. The elections in Pak can't come soon enough.

If it is a Gov to Gov deal then you dont need tendering as neither party will seek profit maximization. Go for it. Its a good deal

WB, is trying its best to delay the construction so we must go for Russian deal.

We need to build dams all big and small ones. Time is runing out of our hand . If we dint act now we will suffer badly as we are already in energy and food sectors

And the itch has started across the border . Grow up

Dude,before any foreign company can come in and finance a Dam which is situated at disputed territory you will have to take NOC from parties you have dispute with !! you just can't expect the Russians to finance the Dam before getting NOC from Indian govt... So you guys stop Jumping before the decision from Indian side...

pakistan must go in for bidding ,this will result in the best dam at the best price plus increasing transparency...............

Source please. Russia gives full support to India over Kashmir, so very unlikely Russia will ever finance Bhasha Dam.

The Cold war is over. India is now closer to US than Pakistan in the new realignment.

Russia is sending a clear signal by Putin's visit to Pakistan, a historic first by a Russian president.

You guys don't get it, Russia wont finance the DAM if there is Objection from Indian side...

The new alignment still haven't reached a stage to make Russia anti-India. Russia's improving relations with Pakistan is because of USA, not India.

Hindis are doing what they do best crying.

Pakistan needs to give this contract to Russia ASAP this dam is very important for Pakistan & I hope to see Kala Bagh Dam project starting soon, it is also very important dam for Pakistan. Chinese should be given the contract for Kala Bagh Dam.

You guys don't get it, Russia wont finance the DAM if there is Objection from Indian side...

Screw you & screw your crap objection.

Here's a recent Op Ed in Russian newspaper Pravda titled "Pakistan can make Russia Queen of Asia":

It is important to remember that Pakistan sits on the crossroads of east to west and north to south trade corridors, including the new Silk Road Project in South Asia, which the Americans cherish. Russia needs to firmly define its economic priorities and defend them strongly. If the resources are not needed, then one should keep the transportation routes of those resources under control. A mega breakthrough is possible in the future: the "Persian Gulf - Bering Strait" railroad. The road will cross the Trans-Siberian Railway, the Turksib and the Trans-Asian Railway from China to Europe.
