ISLAMABAD: Pakistan seems to have accepted the Indian construction of the controversial 450-megawatt (MW) Baghliar Hydropower Project on the Chenab River, which violates the Indus Water Basin Treaty, 1960.
The Pakistani authorities have so far failed to strengthen their case prior to approaching a body of the international water experts in this regard, an official source told Daily Times.
India is making a gate on the Chenab River to divert the water reaching Pakistan, for its 450 MW Baghliar Hydropower project in Indian held Kashmir.
**Pakistan had previously given a three-month ultimatum to India to stop the Baghliar project on May 29-30, threatening to take the issue to the International Court of Justice. With only 16 days left in the expiry of the ultimatum, Pakistan seem least interested in contesting the Indian move. **
The Daily Times sources said the Ministry of Water and Power had sent two reminders to the Ministry of Law and Justice to propose and finalize the names of Pakistani lawyers so they could start preparing the case prior to taking it to International Water Experts, but no progress had been made in this regard. The sources said Attorney General of Pakistan Makhdoom Ali Khan had proposed names of three eminent lawyers, Sharifuddin Pirzada, Badruddin Villani and Dr Pervez Hasan, but the Ministry of Law and Justice remains unresponsive to date, which may cause a delay in filing of the case. Sources said it seemed the authorities were interested in solving the case out of court since a lot of time and finances were required in taking such disputes to international bodies.
“Since a huge amount is involved in hiring lawyers and taking the case to international bodies and as such cases take too much time to be resolved, the authorities may have thought of settling the issue out of court first,” they said. “As far as the legal standing is concerned Pakistan’s position is sound and it can win the case but the government’s determination is needed to fight the case,” the sources said.
It seems Pakistan is still licking its wounds for its case against India on “Atlantique” :hehe:, look what they say : - “Pakistan’s position is sound and it can win :hehe: the case but the government’s determination is needed to fight the case,” the sources said.
Just like that intelligence link you gave us, that also claimed that the US was ready to wipe out Pakistan and then this link turned up to be an Indian one, and didnt even work , LOL
Dr. Spock, this one works. And don’t you think you shud concentrate more on the content rather than from which site it comes from. If you feel its bullsh@t, that’s fine. I am no one to force you to believe. The idea is to discuss on such discussion boards.
So what do you say about the above link, this one too is run by Indians and Pakistan is all set to sue India in ICJ.
Why did you run away from that thread then? LOL… 5abi, really exposed you and your credibility… I know you Indians have been using fake links and Indian sites (disguised as some international media sites) but your little intelligence site really topped it all, heh… Why are you Indians so obsessed and content on using false information to convince us? You know you will never be successful…
And why do you keep honking about another thread where my msg. was posted from an Indian site, why not concentrate on the topic at hand. So, what do u say, why Pak is hesitant to go to ICJ. One reason given above is because it takes a lot of money to hire a lawyer. Didn't they hired a lawyer for Atlantique. Really funny, isn't it and the link is not Indian.
And Ana, that is what you would hear as valuable comments from Pakistani side. PT, how do u relate this to frustration by Indians over flight restrictions or how does it matter if Mush has built 1500 dams in Pakistan, when there is little water flowing from the source. Next time use logic

Do you have any logic? Have you located Verrapan yet ? Have you?
Frustration. Yep, it definitely matters not for Pakistan but for India because Pakistan hasn't given you 20 men wanted by India. Furthemore, you received a slap from your Bengali brothers, who want 20 men from India.
Next time you use logic. In Andhra Pardesh, more than 1000 people already died due to the lack of water and intensive heat last year. Laugh over that and it explains cleary how much India got water for its own population.
Lesson: Read my comments carefully with your open mind and eyes. I said 100-150 dams, not 1500 dams.

Now that is logic. Indus, ICJ directly related to Veerapan. Logical conclusion, ain’t it.

Again very scientific and logical replies explaining why Pakistan is choosing not to go to ICJ.

Now that is at least near to the subject cos it is related to water. Yeah, so India lacks water, that’s why it is doig what it did as mentioned in the initial post. The point is what Pakistan can do about it.
**Read my comments carefully with your open mind and eyes. I said 100-150 dams, not 1500 dams. **
Yeah and my comment about 1500 is sarcastic to tell you that when there is no water flowing, even 1500 is not helpful. ANd do you know the difference between 100 dams and 150 dams, it is 50 dams in all and you r mentioning it casually.

No, it’s not. Actually, you guys are smart to link anything related to Pakistan. But can’t find Verrapan. Use the logic, idiot.

Do you want India to be embarssed internationally even more?

Subject related to water Why you desparately want Pak to go ICJ?

You are a dork. In Pakistan, we need clean and clear water. The Govt. is working on that.
