In short, a river gathers water as it travels downstream. The rivers path is dependent on the terrain of the land, and the water catchment area.
Cutting the source of the river, or its top end won't matter much for the middle and bottom end, if most of the water that the river carries comes from the middle and the bottom end, which is the case for India.
Look at this map.
Tibet barely receives rainfall, almost all the water India receives come from rainfall in India itself..
Sounds plausible.
It's true that rain floods in India cause havoc. Its always in the news.
