maniac Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Why is this announcement made on twitter? This is a massive and significant announcement isn't it. Shouldn't it be via a press conference or something? UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know if my interpretation is correct From what I understood, Pak already has water from 3 rivers I believe according to existing treaties (Indus Water?), The water from 3 rivers India got,some surplus goes to Pakistan and has been for a while. Now they want to start building a project that might take a few years to divert the flow of water. Is that right? If so this is dumb. so Pakistan has water from 3 rivers+some surplus all these days? Our leaders have screwed this country for too long by being pussies and suckups to Pakistan. Gollum, UrmiSinhaRay and Stradlater 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is chutiyapa for sure, but it is a welcome step. How in the world were we even giving our legal share to the Bakistanis? India needs to scrap the whole IWT treaty however. That would be a death blow. UrmiSinhaRay and AK007 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zen Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Again, i believe this is as per the water treaties .... ind is just doing some projects what is the status of water flowing in from China? Has China diverted water? If yes, what have we done about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zen Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I support Modi but do not like the framing by BJP here. Could have just said that dams/projects are being undertaken to better manage water resources (as this is likely to be per water treaties) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are at least 5-6 decisive moves the govt. could have taken without starting an actual artillery war since the attacks. It has been a week since then, and nothing has happened. The problem is we have to choose between an indecisive govt. (BJP) vs a anti-national govt.(Congress+gatbandhan jokers) while it looks like it is not a difficult choice,still Indian public is becoming the chewtiya at a higher level.

Vilander Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 1 hour ago, Stradlater said: Are they stopping Pakistan's share of water to pass through? If not then another jumla from BJP. 1, Indus river flows for 70-75% of its length in Pakistan. some 20-25% in India and probably 5-10 % in China. Riparian state water sharing norms are based on this. 2, To stop 80% of water flow of Indus , India would have to construct like what ~100 dams across 6 rivers in a 150000 sq km area so what do you think is happening now ? or what do you think can happen ever Indian share of the rivers beas ravi and sutlej would probably be dammed further now, thats it.

The way I am seeing things: there are usually 3 non-military options people usually repeat whenever the Bakistanis usually do their usual stuff: 1) Scrap IWT, 2) Repeal 370, 3) Remove MFN status The government has done the 3rd. One can see on twitter that some of the padosis are bothered by it. The 2nd one, some BJP leaders are making noise about it. We will see if it takes action or if they are indeed an indecisive government which, like you posted in the other thread, wasted 330 seat-strong government. They have a chance to do it, we will see, it is not something done as quick as we all would want. The 1st one is actually the most drastic action a government can take, according to some, outside of actually using nuclear weapons. It is more drastic than non-nuclear war possibly. maniac 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
