Beijing: China has not shared any hydrological data for the Brahmaputra river this monsoon season with India but continues to give them to Bangladesh.

On September 12, China had said that it could not share the data with India due to upgradation of data collection station in Tibet.

"For long time we have conducted cooperation on the river data with the Indian side. But to upgrade and renovate the relevant station in the Chinese side, we do not have the conditions now to collect the relevant statistics of the river," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang had told the media.



Asked when will China provide the data, he had added, "We will later consider that."

However, Bangladesh is receiving water level and discharge level data of the Brahmaputra from Beijing.




BBC quoted Mofazzal Hossain, a member of the joint rivers commission of Bangladesh, as saying - "We received data of water level of the Bramahaputra from China few days ago."

On the surface it appears to me that WTO has been a lose-lose for India. (1) Forced import of cheeni and routed (through third countries) goods. (2) destruction of domestic industry through predatory practices - as in bulk antibiotics and bulk API (active medicine compounds), toys etc . (3) reduction in food security due to disagreements on Ag subsidies (4) non-development of potential industries like solar cell manufacturing. It will be interesting to see if PRC honors warranties when Adanis solar power plant in TN has premature failure of cheeni solar panels (5) no protection for service exports, movement of personnel in WTO. ETC ETC

I wonder if cheeni paani torture is feasible on cheenis via imposition of duties on cheeni goods and gradual but steady escalation in the rate.

WTO agreements need to be fine tuned.....

every countrey must be given a free hand to restrict the import if the bilateral trade deficit goesup to a limit...

or finance ministry csn introduce a bill into the parliament to make a law on it , and just tell the wto that they are just acting according to their law of land ....

that can solve many trade problems....
