As part of my daily reading on Quora I came across the following notes, which may be very telling about our water dilemma, even though it discusses the water relationship between 2 of our neighbours and not us in JKA:
What is the water conflict between Pakistan and Afghanistan?
Its a matter of greed.
Pakistan is drowning in water and Afghanistan is facing extreme drought. Pakistan is against Afghanistan diverting excess water that leaves Afghanistan, goes into Pakistan, then ends up in the Indian ocean. Pakistan insists on Afghanistan sending all its water to Pakistan so that it may be wasted by ending up in the ocean rather than Afghanistan using that water to green itself.
Afghanistan has tremendous hydro-power potential. Pakistan wants Afghanistan to be dependant on ridiculously inflated foreign electricity rates rather than generate its own and to benefit its people.
