Pakistan asks India to stop opposing Diamer dam

India knows the consequences of what will happen if India opposes it. We are giving India one more chance.

Ha ha

Chance taken & rejected. Now ?

The issue is about funding, if Pak want international funding from financial institutions then an NOC is required.

If however the all weather friend can spare the moolah - then go ahead.

Because World Bank and Asian Development Bank have told Pakistan to get India's permission to get loan for the dam project. :enjoy:

You are opposing ours and hence we will oppose yours......since our dams get the water first...we have an advantage.

You have no option i.e. if you want funding from an international financial institution , an NOC from India is a must.

If the funds can be raised ' locally' - go ahead.

We have enough money to execute different projects in Jammu and Kashmir without asking any funds from World Bank and Asian Development Bank but Pakistan's case look different.

well they can sure be smuggled in and detonated in the cities.

I would suggest, give them an NOC and in return ask them to wipe out all anti india terror outfits from their land...specially, PeeOK..also, get this thing in written signed by President, ISI Chief, Chief Justice and Army Chief of Pak in front of ADB/WB authorities.....guess water and electricity is more imp for Pak than terrrorism, hence they should not have any issue to accept our very basic demand!

well begun half done!

Diamer-Bhasha-Dam-480x238.jpg

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan has asked India to stop opposing the construction of Diamer-Bhasha Dam at various international financial institutions (IFIs), as New Delhi’s opposition to the vital dam was casting a negative impact on the ongoing Indo-Pak peace process, besides causing huge loss to the country’s exchequer.
India is against the construction of Diamer-Bhasha dam on grounds that it is located in the ‘disputed territory’ of Gilgit-Baltistan and hence it has been opposing Islamabad’s endeavors to seek the required financial assistance for the important project from multilateral creditors.
“Through diplomatic channels, Pakistan is trying to impress upon India to drop its opposition to the mega water project as it is vital for the struggling economy of the country and also that New Delhi’s decision to oppose the dam is also not based on principles, as the people of this areas had themselves decided their accession to Islamabad,” said a diplomatic source, seeking anonymity.
He said India had also been told that its opposition to the dam was impacting the ongoing peace process between the nuclear neighbors and hence it was required to review its decision.
Owing to the reluctance of IFIs like Asian Development and World Bank to extend funds for the Diamer-Basha Dam, a huge loss of $2.5b in the cost of the construction has already been caused to Pakistan’s exchequer.
The cost of Diamer-Bhasha Dam was estimated at around $11 billion in 2009, which however, has now reached at around $13 billion with an increase of $2.5billion due to the delay in the financing of the project.
A Pakistani official, who also sought anonymity, said the dam had a storage capacity of about eight million acre feet (MAF) and the expected electricity generation was 4,500MWs.
He said the project was supposed to be completed by 2017 but due to some financial problems, the dam construction was expected to be delayed by three to four years.
The ADB has reportedly committed $4.5 billion to $5 billion for construction of the project. The bank had also pledged that it would act as the government’s investment banker in raising the money from international capital markets to meet funding requirements.
Similarly, the World Bank too is reluctant to provide funds for this dam on grounds that India is opposing the project.
The official said the good thing so far was that United States had assured Pakistan to extend around $500 million in assistance for the mega project from the $7.5 billion Kerry Lugar assistance package for Islamabad.
Pakistan is also seeking Chinese assistance for the construction of dam. The official said Pakistan would not seek an NOC from India for Diamer-Bhasha Dam but it would continue to nudge New Delhi against the blocking of financial assistance to the project at the IFIs.



my 2 cents we don't give a "DAM" about it, we was and we were and we will continue to oppose all financial assistance to this project.
