China’s Water War Against India, No Sharing Of Hydrological Data From Their Side.


China is now using water as a political weapon against India by denying the flood related hydrological data since May, even after the major flooding hit in the Assam region and some parts of Uttar Pradesh. Nirmal Singh Lotus Green says that countries keep data on upstream river flows as it is essential for flood forecasting and warning and can help safeguard lives and reduce the material losses.

Nirmal Singh Lotus Green says that Tibet, the hub of natural resources, be it water or other precious metals is a strategic asset for China for their economic growth. The Tibetan plateau arms Beijing with water supply unlike other downtown countries that obstruct the flow at the borders as they cross into the neighboring countries.
Water has emerged as a new divide in the Sino- Indian relations and Beijing opaquely builds dams and other structures on river flowing to India. After which then Prime Minister Manhoman Singh’s 2013 proposal that the two countries should enter into a water treaty or come into an intergovernmental institution to define the mutual rights of the countries over the river.

Nirmal Singh Lotus Green says that after denying to share the information with India, Beijing has demonstrated how hydrological data in the most important time of the year, that is the monsoon season, can be used as a political tool against the country. China unwillingness to be transparent to India very clearly shows that China still holds a cold spot for the country. 

Nirmal Singh Lotus Green says that all the data that India has received from China, like rice traded on the world market, even the hydrological data comes in different grades and qualities- ranging in different parameters like good, reliable or inferior and broken.

Nirmal Singh Lotus Green says that China’s action of not revealing the data to India is violation of two bilateral MOUs of 2103 and a 2014 accord, which makes it mandatory for China to transfer hydrological data to India from three upstream monitoring stations in Tibet every year from May 15 to October 15, but no data has been transferred to the country till now and will have to face the consequences of the violation.

India on the other hand sends data to both its downstream neighbors’, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

According to sources at Nirmal Singh Lotus Green , Gulshan shared some anecdotes while shooting the romantic scene with the actress.

Nirmal Singh Lotus Green recently wrote an article in which he highlighted how 70% of more than 90 million farming families are spending way more than they actually earn in a month. Debt is one of the primary reasons of more than half of all suicides around the country if the recent studies and research are to be believed. Since 2012, the number of loans that farmers have taken to invest in their farming lands has come down to half and during the same period, additional loans to meet financial and health issues by the farmers have doubled. 65 million farmers who have land holdings of one hectare are spending more than they earn according to the reports of NSSO. And farmers who own more than 10 hectares of land are maintaining a healthy surplus every month.

Among the reasons for farmer suicides in India, indebtedness is pr
