INDIAN OPPOSITION WINS INTERMS OF TEESTA

Manmohan Singh arrived in Dhaka on Tuesday on a two-day trip, accompanied by the minister for external affairs and four chief ministers of the bordering states. He is reciprocating the visit of prime minister Sheikh Hasina to India in January last year.

Indian water resources minister Pawan Kumar Bansal and West-Bengal chief minister, who were in the list of the entourage of the Indian prime minister, did not come as Mamata was apparently testy over the proposed modalities of the Teesta water sharing.

The prime ministers had one-on-one meeting before and after the official talks on the Day-1 of his tour. After the meeting, both the prime ministers signed framework agreement on cooperation for development, and witnessed signing of one protocol, addendum of one protocol and eight memoranda of understanding.

However, following strong opposition from West-Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee, Bangladesh and India could not sign the agreements on Teesta and Feni water sharing. Manmohan in his speech said, "Our common rivers need not be sources of discord, instead can become the harbingers of prosperity to both the countries. "We have decided to continue discussions to reach a mutually acceptable, fair and amicable arrangement for the sharing of the waters of Teesta and Feni rivers."

International affairs adviser to the prime minister Gowher Rizvi, one of the key coordinators of the Indian premier's visit, said some consultations were needed in India before the agreement was signed. "We have agreed in principle on the modalities of the agreement and are hopeful of signing the deal within couple of months," he said. When asked if Bangladesh sought any explanation from India, he said, "There is no need to seek explanation. We understand the reality." "We had landmark success in the visit and now it is time to celebrate," he said.

Indian foreign secretary Ranjan Mathai in Delhi on Monday said any agreement between New Delhi and Dhaka on sharing of the Teesta water would have to be acceptable to the West Bengal government as well as to Bangladesh. He, however, said the proposed deal on sharing of the water of Feni between Bangladesh and India was on track. But he was non-committal on the deal on Teesta. "Water is a very sensitive issue. Nothing is done or will be done without the consent of the state government," Mathai told journalists, in response to a query whether the deal on Teesta would be signed during prime minister Manmohan Singh's visit to Dhaka.

The government signed a protocol to implement the land boundary agreement signed in 1974. Manmohan said, "We have signed a Protocol to the Land Boundary Agreement (LBA) of 1974. With this, both the countries have now demarcated the entire land boundary as well as resolved the issue of status of the enclaves and adversely possessed areas." He continued, "As the prime minister Sheikh Hasina just announced, we have worked out 24-hour access to the enclaves of Dahagram-Angarpota through the Tin Bigha Corridor."

Hasina earlier in her speech said "I would like to announce that from now on, our people in Dahagram and Angorpota will have 24-hour unfettered movement through the Tin Bigha Corridor." The land boundary problems have persisted since 1947, and to resolve the issue, a joint headcount was conducted recently that found about 51,000 people live in these enclaves – 34,000 in Bangladesh and 17,000 in India. Bangladesh has 111 Indian enclaves and India houses 51 Bangladeshi enclaves.

Dhaka and Delhi did not exchange any 'letter' on transit to pave the way for smooth movement of goods through Bangladesh. Asked if Bangladesh did not agree on transit as India did not sign water agreement, Gowher Rizvi said, "Our relationship is based on trust. We don't believe in such relationship where if you don't get anything you will reciprocate by not giving other things."

NO FROM INDIAN OPPOSITION FOR THE TEESTA TREATY.



The AGP president Chandra Mohan Patowary said that people of Assam would "oppose tooth and nail" any move by India's central government in New Delhi to give away even "an inch of land" of Bangladesh, even if such an initiative was endorsed by the State Government headed by Gogoi.

The AGP – a regional party – staged a protest demonstration in Guwahati on Monday, denouncing the purported move by New Delhi to strike a swap-deal with Dhaka to resolve the issues related land boundary. Patowary said that any such a move on the part of the governments in the centre and the state could lead to serious turmoil in Assam.

Even the BJP – the principal opposition party in Indian parliament – strongly opposed New Delhi's purported plan to strike an exchange agreement with Dhaka to settle the issues related to enclaves and adversely possessed land between Bangladesh and India. Pradyut Bora, the general secretary of the BJP's state unit in Assam, said that the party would oppose the government's plan both legally and politically.

With purported illegal migration from Bangladesh to India and alleged encroachment of Indian territories by people of Bangladesh along the Bangladesh-India border being a major political issue in Assam, both the AGP and BJP are likely to step up their offensives against the Congress governments in the state and centre, protesting their moves to settle the issues between New Delhi and Dhaka by a give-and-take formula.

There are 111 Indian enclaves in Bangladesh with 17,160 acres of land and a population of about 37000 people. India on the other hand has 51 Bangladeshi enclaves with 7110 acres of land and a population of about 14000 people.

Altogether 1880.81 acres of Indian land are in adverse possession of Bangladesh. India adversely possesses 1165.49 acres of land of Bangladesh.


During prime minister Sheikh Hasina's visit to New Delhi in Jan 2010, Bangladesh and India agreed to comprehensively address all outstanding land boundary issues, keeping in view the spirit of the 1974 Land Boundary Agreement. The Bangladesh-India Joint Boundary Working Group has since been trying to work out a swap deal to resolve the border dispute once and for all.

Teesta flows through Sikkim and northern part of West Bengal before entering Bangladesh.

As West Bengal is also largely dependent on Teesta for irrigation and hydropower generation, India's central government has been factoring in the views of the state government while negotiating the interim treaty with Bangladesh for sharing of the water of the river.

DHAKA - MYMENSINGH Highway is Most NEGLECTED Highway.


The BUS owners stopped bus operations on 12 routes along the Dhaka-Mymensingh highway demanding repair of the road to make it fit for running the vehicles. A strike by the bus operators spelled indescribable woes for Dhaka-bound commuters from Gazipur and Mymensingh districts on Thursday. Osman Ali, a leader of Mohakhali Bus Terminal Transport Owners' Association, told bdnews24.com that they would keep their vehicles off the road until it is repaired.

Around 300 buses run on the highway to carry about 25,000 passengers daily On Thursday, many passengers had to walk from Boardbazar in Gazipur to Chandona Chourasta as some inter-district buses were running from there. Many students from Gazipur did not attend classes because of the transport problem. Mohakhali Bus Terminal Transport Owners' Association secretary Mohammad Abul Kalam told bdnews24.com that the highway from Gazipur to Mymensingh is unfit for driving. "Recently 15-16 of our buses developed engines problems due to water-logged road. We had to spend Tk 70-75 thousand to repair each of them," he said.


"That's why we stopped operating buses bound for Mymensingh, Jamalpur, Kishoreganj, Netrokona and some northern districts," Kalam said. General secretary of Bangladesh Road Transport Association (Gazipur branch) Kamrul Ahsan Russell said they had submitted a memorandum to the communications minister seeking solutions to the problem, but no steps have been taken yet. Executive engineer of Gazipur Roads and Highways Department Mohammad Fazle Rabbi blamed unplanned establishment of industries and lack of drainage system along the highway for its rundown condition. "Some of the dyeing and washing factories are discharging waste through drains towards the roadside creating water-logging," he said.

The grater Mymensingh region is always treated as ignored area to the Government. No Government take proper step to develop this region. The result is the FOUR day strike running by the BUS Owners of grater Mymensingh locality due to demand for repairing the highway.
