Water Resources Should Be Nationalized
WATER RESOURCES SHOULD BE NATIONALISED

India is one country united by various states to have peace within,we should live together by sharing our wants with each other. Surplus should be shared. Every state has dispute in sharing water resources with its neighbouring state. Then and thereproblem arising between peoples of two states.they are not allowing neighbouring state vehicles to enter into their state. We have enough water from nature but we tend to overuse or misuse it. Some parts of India are flooded with rain,they don’t have place to live till the flooded rain water gets drained,in some other parts people are longing to get water for irrigation and their basic needs. Loss in one place can be utilized as a resource in one place. So India as whole will be benefited. The main purpose of national utilization of water resources is uniform and proper use of this resource at every place,in order to avoid problem between the states,nationalization should be done,but on the other hand it is also necessary that it should not be merely a political agenda. The rivers flowing from the north to south are not 100% utilized by the individual states efficiently. Because some state may need water and some may not need depending upon the geographical location,requirement,agriculture,etc. So the unused water of these rivers are directed to the sea. So what the government has planned to nationalize the rivers by constructing a water channel from north to south,like hoe the national highways are there in our country.we will have the water highway routes in the form of the channels.

AS PER MY KNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEMS IN IMPLEMENTING THIS I THINK ARE At present water resourcesin India are under the control of respective state government,to nationalize it all state governments must accept it. Detailed well planned architecturehave to be prepared to connect all rivers without any city gets affected. Lakhs and lakhs of acres of land

    In her book Vanada Shiva points out a growing concern many people do not pay attention do in their everyday lives. We take water for granted, and find hard to imagine a day when the tap runs dry. In Water Wars the author does an excellent job of analyzing the privatization, pollution, and profit of water in the International arena. She takes a scientific approach and explains the means and methods of water processing and extraction. In offering several tragic examples of where the water tables have already run dry in India, and the horrible loss of life which followed. Clearly, that which we take for granted in America is something of scarcity in other less fortunate countries. Either way, Shiva points out in her book the necessity of understanding…

    The New Oil

    Water is a resource lots of people take for granted. When water starts to become more scarce throughout time, who should take control over it? Public companies? Or Private? I believe the answer to this dilemma is that public companies should mostly take control of the water system but still work with private companies to benefit the water supply the most. They should mostly control the water supply because I think that private companies won’t be able to handle the water resources properly. According to the article “The New Oil” by Jeneen Interlandi, private companies don’t understand how important the conservation of water means to the survival of the human race and all the animals and plants on earth. Wars will start because water is running out, killing millions of people. If water runs out, everyone will die, completely destroying the earth’s ecosystem because everything needs water. It is a scarce, inelastic resource that needs to be handled with the utmost care.…

    Privatization of water utilities is becoming commonplace in much of the world. In France, water utilities are private. Some are quite large and have worldwide operations: Vivendi and Suez Lyonnaise des Eaux are examples. Britain’s government water monopoly was broken into eight large private water utilities by Margaret Thatcher. Much of the developing world gives concession contracts to private water utilities to build and operate their expanding systems. Worldwide, just $300 million was spent on water privatization between 1984 and 1990. In the next seven years, more than $24 billion was spent. There is no question where the rest of the…

    At present our public is completely misled about the Kosi Treaty. Similarly our people are mislead about the vast opportunity for the development of our country within relatively a short period if we succeeded in taking right decisions on implementation of the projects in Kosi basin. Unfortunately very recently our government appears to be taking very odd decisions on implementation of few major projects in Kosi and other river basins compromising our vital national interest. Highest authorities of our government, legal experts, scholars distinguished in the field of water resources and media must be deeply concerned about it. They must step in to prevent ruination of our water resources…

    The Ganges water sharing problem is not only the longest standing source of dispute between Bangladesh and India but also by now one of the most elaborately studied subjects in inter state relations in South Asia. The flow of the Ganges water stands 7000 waters above the sea level at its points of origin in Nepal and traverse for about 2550 kms through Nepal, India and Bangladesh before falling in the Bay of Bengal. The main stream of Ganges splits into two channels before entering into Bangladesh, one flowing as Bhagirathi-Hoogli into West Bengal and the other as Padma into Bangladesh. The Ganges water dispute centres around the Barrage and the feeder canal constructed by India at Farakka, 18 kms upstream from Bangladesh. The Barrage is designed to divert part of Ganges dry season flow through the Hoogli-Bhagirathi river for flushing the silt in Calcutta port. The impact of the Ganges water i.e. the adverse affect of the Barrage on Bangladesh is enormous and multidimensional. These have been several short term sharing agreements; the first one was worked out in 1977 and the land one ram out in 1989. Since them there was a total vacuum in the arrangement. The Governments of Bangladesh endeavored to their utmost to solve the issue. However, amidst of all efforts, due to…
