What are the ojectives advantages of the Indus Waters Treaty between India and Pakistan?
The waters of the Indus Basin rivers had been used for irrigation purposes even
before the development of the present canal system by British engineers in the
early 19th century. There were numerous inundation canals in the Indus Valley,
which diverted supplies directly from the rivers during the high flow periods,
without any diversion works across the riverbed. The local community, tribes,
or states managed these inundation canals.
From the middle of the 19th century onwards, irrigation was gradually
extended through the introduction of improved methods and the construction
of diversion works across the rivers. A number of agreements for the sharing of
river waters took place. The most significant of these have been the Indus
Basin Treaty (1960) between India and Pakistan and the Water Apportionment
Accord (1991) between the four provinces of Pakistan.
In August 1947, when South Asia was divided into two independent countries,
there existed in the area, one of the most highly developed irrigation systems
in the world. The system catered to approximately 37 million acres of land,
supplying it with the waters of the Indus rivers. All available water supplies
were allocated to various princely States and provinces, in conformity with the
principle of equitable apportionment of waters.
The Indus System of Rivers in the Indus Basin comprises of the Indus and its
five main tributaries i.e. Jhelum, Chenab, Ravi, Beas and Sutlej. They all
combine into one river near Mithan Kot in Pakistan and flow into the Arabian
Sea, south of Karachi. The total area of the Indus Basin is roughly 365,000
miles2
. Most of it lies in Pakistan and the remaining is part of occupied Jammu
and Kashmir, India, China and Afghanistan.
At the time of Independence, 31 out 37 million acres in Pakistan were
irrigated. The boundary line between the two countries being partitioned was
drawn without any regard to the existing irrigation works. It was, however,
affirmed by the Boundary Commission. Representatives of the affected zones
expressly agreed before the Arbitral Tribunal that the authorized zones in the
common water supply would continue to be respected.
