Rajiv Ranjan on "Water Wars? Damming the Brahmaputra and Its Implications" in Opinion Asia

Rajiv Ranjan, a PhD Candidate at the Centre, on "Water Wars? Damming the Brahmaputra and Its Implications" in Opinion Asia has argued that water may taken on an overtly political dimension, even escalating to a limited military confrontation threatening the peace and stability of the region. It becomes critical therefore that China, India and Bangladesh work towards joint river management for the sustainable development of the Brahmaputra basin if political tension and a military showdown is to be avoided.
