With India Mulling To Scrap The Indus Water Treaty, Here Are The Concerns It Should First Address

[Adhiri]

Doesn't matter whether we want to get out of the IWT or not, it serves our purpose to have the Pakistanis dwell on it.

We are doing much more than make the pakistanis dwell on it. We are making them Sweat.

All projects on the Indus and chenab has be given a go by the Modi govt. and funds have been allocated. The new order is to fact track the projects.

This is a small list of SOME of the Projects that is currently going on and is in direct violation of IWT.

1. Pakal Dul Dam on the Chenab. Turkey is a partner for constructing the Damn and pakistan has objected it as a violation of the IWT.

Its going to be a massive 10 km long, with a capacity of 108,000,000 cm and is a concrete face rockfill dam.

2. Kiru Dam and Kwar Dam

These too is a concrete Dam on the Chenab River and again pakistan considers it an violation of the Indus river treaty.

3. Sawalkot Dam

It has a capacity of 1.2 GW i.e. 1,200 MW and is a Concrete Dam. It is a massive 646-foot in height.

4. Bursar Dam

This is the biggest of them all.

Its has a height of 829ft having the capacity of 2,00,000 acre water storage. ( i.e. Dam is Almost 1 KM in height)

Its going to be Massive right on the Chenab river.


5. As for the Indus, India is building the Tulbul Navigation project that will link the water of the Indus and Jhelum and will then like that to the Chenab.

The project envisages making of 10-parallel waterways — a lock way, two overflow ways, six non-overflow ways and a fish ladder.

These locks can also be used to either withhold water or use the water to flood pakistan.

We are not scrapping the Indus water treaty. We are just using the full share of our water as per agreed upon in that treaty.

Yes you do but if it lessen the Pakistan share of water China will stop both Brahmaputra and Indus than you only left with 20 percent of water

Actually that is a result of not having a clear picture in this matter. In the Indus, China(Tibet) has very little flow through it, India has more but the bulk is within Pakistan itself. The Indus won't be an major issue for Pakistan but the Jhelum could be because it carries huge volumes and the Chinese have no say in it. The reality though is that any disruption even if it is authorised is many years away. As far as Brahmaputra is concerned, the Chinese have been building run of the river dams anyways and might well use the dams to divert but the same situation exists as there is for the Indus, the massive flow of that river occurs within India and will create very little difference if interfered with in Tibet, even less than the Indus. In both cases though, there are 3rd parties involved, Pakistan (even if limited) & Bangladesh who will be affected if India uses the excuse of china & says the fault lies there for any lower flow.

Yes but here come the world Bank who has guaranteed the water flow from India to Pakistan what about that

Word Bank is No Enforcer he Broker Who broke the Deal Wic not binding and bilateral

 

[Super Falcon]

Yesterday world Bank confirmed Pak they won't allow india to stop water WB is guarantor in the deal

As per your Media How they Will Stop it. there is No International LAW for transnational rivers Are they stopping china Or USA Big No

Word Bank is not International council And IWT is no International treaty but Bilateral One

That's not related to the question you posed & the truth is that you won't like the answer there either. If India does abrogate/withdraw from the treaty, no one else will come around & enforce it. These treaties work because the parties concerned allow them to work. I happen to think it is very unlikely (could change if there is another horrendous attack on a large scale) that India will withdraw but even without withdrawal, I foresee more aggressive building of dams even if they are within the confines of the treaty in theory. India has a lot of scope to use far more water(it uses next to nothing) than it does presently & that will pose some problems to Pakistan even when it is completely legal.

IWT may need to be stopped. Indus river originates from China, flows through Kashmir , and then enters Pakistan. It has nothing to do with India. Let's say, if Pakistani government takes up the issue with China, we should take concerted action to India. If a peaceful discussion doesn't work why can't we just take over the area by force?

China has other ways to cut throats of India with water.

 

[Qutb-ud-din Aybak]

Do understand the difference between suspension of talks on the treaty and scrapping of the treaty. They are two different things.

suspension talks means you won't be listening to any of our concerns which is just like scrapping the treaty. its like we will voilate treaty and won't listen to you either.

 

[Qutb-ud-din Aybak]

And life will continue, and your cries will fall on deaf ears like Nawaz's speech on the UN general assembly, these veil threats are seriously like a drag making people sleep!

they haven't listened to you either. UN seceratory general and human right commision head listened to pakistan along with OIC.

Coward terrorist modi can not do anything but just creating a propaganda against PAKISTAN all over the world.

Everybody Know Modi could be a Butcher of Gujrat, but he is not a Coward by any Stretch of Imagination by even your leaders.

Yes you do but if it lessen the Pakistan share of water China will stop both Brahmaputra and Indus than you only left with 20 percent of water

LOL, What really amuse me of Pakistani is that they talk like the Authority of the China. Janab, you are in no position to tell China to do what they will do. Talk about yourself.

OK here is the reality, but first some video, but Indian video are bluff and fake, so lets take some Pakistani media Comedy show

Now here is the reality, actually Pakistani water that flow from those 5 rivers water gets wasted about 50% of the water after reaching the Sea, and India is yet to utilized its own share of the Water which is 20% of the water which we can utilize with in the norms of the IWT. And till now, GOI are just looking at the ways to utilized those 20% of the water which we have the authority to utilize according the norms. And according to the studies conducted in 2010, if we utilized our share only, it will hurt Pakistan.

Second Pakistan today lies fully exposed even by the IWT Commission for not using any water conservation means despite the various monsoon deluges since 2010, & consistently failing to dredge its riverbeds & irrigation canals. All this is enough material evidence to prove that Pakistan is squandering its abundant natural resources instead of putting them to productive use.Which goes against the Pakistan on the Technical and legal Standpoint.

Third is Pakistani Giving moral support to the Kashmiri, so its time to prove that. A resolution was passed in J&K Legislative Assembly in 2002, calling for annulling the IWT. A section inside J&K even considers the IWT as an Indo-Pak conspiracy against the Kashmiris. Kashmiri grievances are based on emotional and economic issues; for Kashmiris, water and land have always been an emotional issue. Second, J&K also considers the IWT as an economic liability. The majority in J&K consider that the IWT discriminates against Kashmiris by not letting them tap the potential of the Indus and its tributaries in terms of using the waters for agriculture, transport and energy.

The people of Northern Areas in Azad Kashmir (Azad Kashmir) also consider the IWT against their interests. The P0K aka Azad Kashmir too thinks the problem with the rest of Pakistan on the Mangala dam. Muzaffarabad feels exploited by the rest of Islamabad over the dam and the construction in Mirpur has dislocated the entire city, with the benefit going to the rest of Pakistan. So Pakistani being the biggest Kair Khar of the Kashmiris could not stay behind, and could easily stay thirsty for the benifit of the Kashmiri people.

Who says we will cry?????
We are not india, this is the whole reason for war

None of our rivers flow through india only occupied Kashmir, effort to throw indian occupation into the dust bin of history and make their occupation costly and painful would triple, at the moment you blame us for kashmiries resistance if we really supported them then you would know about it

 

[hussain0216]

Sure good on them, they went for some light entertainment and scones and coffee!



hearing for the last 70 yrs, getting tried of this broken record fellas

Were you tired of the record when 18 of your soldiers were burnt to death????


A threat to your water supply is more justification of any action
