Water Issue -Pakistan's lifeline

Baglihar Dam in Occupied Kashmir is being built even though it is against the Water treaty between India and Pakistan.

"At the heart of the dispute is the design of the project which, according to Pakistan, provides for submerged gate spillways which give India control over Pakistani waters in breach of the water treaty. Pakistan will lose 7,000-8,000 cusecs of water a day if the Baglihar project is allowed to be completed. "

Pakistan is already facing a water shortage and our previous leaders had already given rivers - Sutlej, Beas and Ravi to India. What is left is being slowly taken from us. This is what India gives us even after all the stupid cultural exchanges and what not.. Is India even sincere in recognizing our existence. Does India even treat us equally? Doesn’t seem so!

Quaid e Azam had not said it in vain, that Kashmir is Pakistan’s jugular vain.

While most of the Pakistanis have been fooled into stories of love for India and its friendship, India is back-stabbing us with first a fence on the line of control (LOC) and now the Baglihar dam in Occupied Kashmir. On the other fronts, our identity and cultural and religious distinctiveness we have already given up.

So slowly wait and see the end of a country whose progress, protection and development was a sacred religious duty.

Re: Water Issue -Pakistan’s lifeline

pakistan has food shortage due water shortage?

Water does grow crops...

India, all this will be sorted out, when we conquer then again and finish the job Glorious Timur started.

there are water sharing problems beween sindhis and punjabis and tamils and
karnatka it has nothing to with relgen and timur

Maybe, but the idea of an empire stretching from CAR to the middle of Africa, to the gates of Vienna, to Moscow makes me smile...

Hopefully the next time it can be under 1 absolute ruler, and not several seperate empires.

Before we complain about Indian dams, what botu the dams we are building up country ourselves?

Why the dictator is not taking this issue to the World Bank which is the guarantor of the Indus Water Treaty? What the hell this dimwit is waiting for?

Acha ji.....tussi jao to apnay dam banao...mano ana hindian naal zara gal karan do....

Sorry, I don't understand Punjabi very well.

i wonder how this dam has come to advance stages of completion, presumably after millions and millions of rupees have been invested, and only now the tamasha begins. i am curious to see how this all plays out.

what does this dam conflict have to do with muslims taking over the world? given the current state of the muslim community...i wouldn't hold my breath. it's hard to think of a prominent community that is as powerless and whose progression is as stagnant.
