Background of the Indus water treaty

Background of the Indus water treaty

There were 3 Civil Engineers of India who gave upper hand to India in control of Punjab waters in 1947.

If these 3 engineers were not there during partition of India, there was no Indian control on rivers.

Read how these technical patriotic men changed the history.

Indian partition was being decided upon in early 1947.

Then Radcliffe came to India to make the line.

Indian luck was there that engineers AN Khosla, Sarup Singh were employed in Punjab irrigation works and Kanwar Sen was employed in Bikaner state water department.

Sarup Singh & Khosla in Punjab saw that Ferozepur is going in Pakistan map. As Engineers they understood something which others failed to.

Sarup Singh secretly wrote a letter to Kanwar Sen in Bikaner & warned him in advance that Ferozepur is going to Pakistan.

Kanwar Sen was also a talented engineer & understood what it meant. It meant— Ferozepur Headworks, the junction which controls 3 major canals including Gang Canal of Bikaner will be under control of Pakistan.

Kanwar Sen immediately explained the situation to Pannikar, PM of Bikaner state.

They both then met Maharaja of Bikaner Sadul Singh ji & convinced him to intervene.

Sadul Singh had personal rapport with Mountbatten. He told Mountbatten if Ferozepur Headworks goes to Pakistan, Bikaner will have no option but to merge with Pakistan for its survival.

It alarmed Congress leadership too.

Bikaner state had already refused Muslim League's offer to merge & was praised by Nehru for it.

So, Nehru got to know about it. Nehru also used his personal push & pull to convince Mountbatten that 3 tehsils in question are given to India.

Sardar Patel & VP Menon also had their sources in all internal dealings of Boundary commission. They also came forward to talk to Mountbatten.

Ultimately, Ferozepur Headworks along with Ferozepur, Zira, and Fazilka tehsils were awarded to India.

Pakistan was in shock.

These Headworks which India got were connected to canals of Pakistan. Indian control on these & hostility of Pakistan towards India forced India to stop their water from Indian headworks.

This ultimately led to sign the Indus Water Treaty.

In independent India, Kanwar Sen was the one who conceptualised Rajasthan canal project now known as Indira Gandhi Canal.

Kanwar Sen was awarded Padma Bhushan for his services.

Different types of trades work in difference types of market environments

Different types of trades work in difference types of market environments.

If the sentiment is very bullish- Breakout trades would work at its best in the initial phase. This is where the trend must be reversing and short covering starts. Pullback traders might keep on waiting for a pullback which unfortunately doesn't come and BO traders make money. In the later part pullback traders have their opportunities but not many as the trend would be slowing down. BO traders would start losing.

If the sentiment is moderately bullish- the BO traders would lose money as they won't get their 1:2 or 1:3 so easily. Pullback traders will make money for quite a time. BO traders will make money near a top but not for long as the trend might climax and ultimately reverse.

What it means is that different type of traders make money in different type of markets as you can't be both BO and pullback trader. It could be disastrous.

When will the Bullet Train be Functional in India?

Mumbai - Ahmedabad high-speed train (bullet train) project is unlikely to begin operations before 2029 and could get delayed to even 2031-32

The main cause of delay at present is the delay in two key issues: the type of trains (rolling stock) and the signalling system to be used on the new line.

Japanese delegation is understood to have informed its Indian counterparts that it would not be possible to deliver Shinkansen high-speed trains before 2030, as India has yet to order them. 

A total of 400 coaches (train cars) are needed to operate as eight and 16-car trains.

Within the Ministry of Railways, it is felt in some quarters that high-speed trains could be procured from European manufacturers at approximately half the cost.

However, this could prove problematic for India, as integrating European rolling stock with Japanese signalling technology is unlikely to provide the best solution.
