Savage Waters that will not be tamed

Read the economist article here.... (India is not shown correctly, you idiots! See the head J&K)


See how since 1978, these politicians includign Lalu did not bother anything on the Nepal side bund.

Nepal has to help to create a barrage ( bund - to correctly set the 35 to 80 kms ) path of Kosi. Or build a very high dam at Nepal, that might solve about 80% of problem (rest is headache of Bihar rulers). I believe earlier governments in Nepal (under King) were very co-operative, but due to the investment nature, India was to spend those 3500 crores fully, which could have been a political suice and in 1978 Morarji Deasai then PM put a road block to that work order. We Indians could have got the right to generated power at a small cost, just paying operations cost and also helping Nepal (employment, and saving floods pain in their side). We also have to wait and see with the new people govt. there.

Looks simple, but now?
