A08. REGARDING WATER SHARING, HOW DID IT HAPPEN
WITH PUNJAB?
How did the Central Governments continue to be
hostile to Punjab and how did the Punjab Leaders
continue to be loyal to Punjab and the farmers
for the happiness of the Center.
Note 1: 2011, NASA says Punjab will be barren
for 20 years due to water scarcity
Note 2: Kiosk is used to measure water discharge
at water source. Kiosk means one cubic foot of
water discharge per second. One cubic foot
contains 28.32 liters of water. More than one
lakh liters of water flowing per hour. One cusec
irrigates about 20 acres of land per day.
Note 3: Water is measured in this way to
indicate water consumption. One acre, one foot
of water in a reservoir, is called one acre of
water. One acre of water can irrigate about 10
acres of land.
Note 4: There were actually 6 rivers in
undivided Punjab. Sutlej, Beas, Ravi, Chenab,
Jhelum and Sindh.
Before independence, Agraj had divided the
Indian states according to his needs. Which was
given the name of Residency or Agency. Khairpur
was the only state in the Sindh Agency. While
Punjab Agency had 15 states. At the time of
independence, the British gave the heads of
state the right to choose between Pakistan,
India, to remain independent. Out of the Punjab
agency, only the state of Bahawalpur chose to
stay with Pak. The remaining 14 states chose to
stay with India. The states living with India
were: Faridkot, Kapurthala, Malerkotla, Nabha,
Patiala, Bilaspur, Kangra, Mandi, Sirmaur, Sket,
Tehri, Jind, Kalsia and Loharu.
(India's five states of Junagadh, Hyderabad,
Bilaspur, Bhopal, Travancore, remained
independent at the time they were later annexed
to India. The Hindu king of the Muslim-majority
state of Kashmir chose to stay with India.)
At that time there were two main sources of
water for irrigation in northern India. Which
were called besan. Indus Basin and Ganges Basin.
The Indus Basin included six rivers of the
Punjab and the Ganga Basin the Ganga Jamna. In
the state from which the rivers flowed for
irrigation. They were considered part of the
same basin. Meaning they were entitled to the
same water. The first 11 states of the Indian
Punjab Agency drew water from the Indus Basin
(Sutlej, Ravi, Beas, Chenab, Jhelum and Sindh).
While the last three states like Jid, Kalshi,
Loharu etc. used to take water from Ganga Beshan
i.e. Jamna river.
According to the Indus Water Treaty, West Punjab
will use water from Chenab, Jhelum and Indus
rivers. East Punjab can use the entire water of
Sutlej Beas Ravi three rivers. An unjustified
argument of Pak: Because the state of Bahawalpur
which used to get water from Ravi has become
deprived of its own water. India, ie the eastern
states, should pay compensation for the
construction of new canals to draw water from
the Chenab river. That amount was set at
ਉਸ
60 million at the time. The eastern states,
especially those with canal irrigation at that
time, were only five. That means Faridkot,
Kapurthala, Malerkotla, Nabha, Patiala, the area
of the states in Punjab.
India did not pay the huge sum of 6 60 million.
Instead, after the inspiration and demand of
Punjabis, USA, Canada, England, New Zealand were
given by many countries. It is clear from this
fact that Punjab alone is the sole owner of
Sutlej, Beas and Ravi waters. However, Himachal
and Kashmir also have ownership rights. But they
don't need any more water. Haryana, (Jind
Kalsian Loharu) Delhi, Rajasthan has no claim on
Punjab's water. Because they used to take water
from the Yamuna. The Riparian principle does not
apply to Punjab. Punjab is the sole owner.
Riparian means one who lives by the water's
edge. In Europe, for example, high and low
places are irrigated by sprinklers or lift
pumps. Water is scarce, demand is high. There
the water is distributed according to the
Riparian Law. Whichever side of the water, or
the area of the village or city, has been
irrigated from this source in the past. Water
should be distributed according to the same
ratio.
But in this case at the time of Indo Water
Treaty 1961 only five states of Punjab Faridkot,
Kapurthala, Malerkotla, Nabha, Patiala were
using water from Indus Basin. At that time the
present Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan were not using
the water of Indus Basin as free property.
Bikaner State and some districts of present day
Haryana used to get water from Punjab. In return
he paid four annas per crop per acre. This is
living proof that Punjab is the sole owner of
water from the Indus Basin. No other
stakeholders. Therefore, the Riparian principle
does not apply at all.
Punjab could not use even one per cent of its
water. Out of 304 lakh acres of water, only 34
lakh acres could be used. All the water is going
to Pak. He has taken 6 6 crore, which is
equivalent to Rs 6,000 crore today, and is also
using water. Why? There are many reasons for
this. Centre's hostile policy towards Punjab.
Selfish looting by Punjab leaders. Absence of a
truly honest Punjab friendly government.
Punjab's leaders have perpetrated atrocities on
Punjab by adopting Riparian doctrine. The
leaders of Punjab took out a loan of about Rs
100 crore and got it in their pockets. But after
spending a few crores, the water of Ravi could
not stop even the water of Sutlej.
ACP promises Punjabis that ACP government will
fully utilize Sutlej Beas and Ravi water. ACP is
able to manage the funds for this project. Canal
water will be normal. Farming costs will go
down. Bore motors will become meaningless.
Electricity will be normal. Punjab will be able
to sell its water to Rajasthan. The Punjab
Government will take legislative action on the
pending appeal from November 25, 1983 to be
heard by the Supreme Court.
To prove the above fact, I am giving a brief
history of the waters of Punjab. By reading it,
the consciousness of every intelligent Punjabi
will be awakened.
In 1900, Bikaner was an independent state. Which
was ruled by Maharaja Ganga Singh. Ganga Singh
had approached the British government to get
water from Bikaner from Punjab. Ganga Singh had
approached the British government to supply
water to Bikaner from the Sutlej river in the
Punjab. The Bikaner government will compensate
the Punjab government for this water. The
Bikaner government will pay the price of land
under the canal in Punjab to Punjab. The cost of
the canal will be borne by the Bikaner
government. Raja Ganga Singh ruled Bikaner from
1887 to 1943.
In 2006, the Bikaner government made this
request to the Viceroy of India.
On September 4, 1920, an agreement was reached
to build the Ganges Canal. Which would be
diverted from the Sutlej from Dhussainiwala and
supply 2720 cusecs of water to Bikaner.
On October 26, 1927, the canal was completed. It
was inaugurated by Lord Irban. It was called
Ganga Canal due to the construction of Raja
Ganga Singh.
On January 1, 1928, the canal water started
flowing completely and the Bikaner government
started paying compensation of 4 annas per acre
to the Punjab government. As the state of
Haryana was giving earlier. The state of Bikaner
was later incorporated into Rajasthan. But
Punjab continued to get water. Which was closed
after independence.
The states in PEPSU also paid compensation.
(Many veterans may be confused about the Punjab
and Pepsu area at that time. According to my
research, Punjab is the part which was under
Agraj. Pepsu included many states of Haryana
besides the existing states of Punjab.) All
these PEPSU states were compensating the Punjab
ie the British government)
August 15, 1947. After independence, there was a
rift between India and Pakistan over the
distribution of water. Both armies came to the
border. The big countries got involved and
appointed the World Bank as an arbitrator. The
bank has visited both the countries several
times.
At that time water was considered to be the two
main basins. Indus Basin and Ganga Basin. The
rivers of the Punjab were in the Indus Basin and
the Jamna etc. were counted in the Ganges Basin.
The Indus Basin had the capacity to supply 1734
lakh acre feet of water. The Ganga Basin has a
water capacity of 4460 lakh acre feet. But only
3 million acre feet of water from the Ganga
Basin is being used by many states in India.
Everything else falls into the ocean.
When the major countries hired the World Bank to
settle the water dispute after the Indo-Pak
partition, India claimed Rajasthan, Pepsu and
Bikaner as part of the Indus Basin to get a
bigger share of water from the World Bank. In
fact, they were part of the Ganga Bashan.
Rajasthan, Bikaner and Pepsu cannot become
riparians of Punjab. Because they were part of
the second Ganga Beshan. Present-day Haryana was
also part of the Ganges Basin. Even at the time
of united Punjab, only five states of Punjab
Faridkot, Kapurthala, Malerkotla, Nabha, Patiala
were using Indus Basin water. Although
compensation was given. Water came to the
landlocked states of Haryana from the river
Jamuna. Which is the river of Ganga Beshan.
Punjab actually has only 34 lakh acre feet of
water. Out of which Punjab is using 1.5 million
acre feet of water and the rest is going to
other states. Which is being forced by the
central government
Out of the 1.5 million acre feet of Punjab,
plans are being made to divert more water from
Punjab by raising the banks of Sutlej Yamuna
Link Canal, Hansi Watana Canal and Bhakra. These
projects are considered as a step taken by the
Badal government towards the farmers of Punjab.
During the partition of August 15, 1947, Harike
Headworks began to be built. In order to supply
water to the present Haryana area, construction
of 18500 cusec feet water supply gates (moghes)
was started.
On September 25, 1950, the Bhakra Control Board
and the Bhakra Advisory Board were constituted.
Through which the Bhakra Dam of Punjab was taken
over by the Center. No representative of Punjab
has been taken in this board. Earlier it was
under the control of Punjab.
On January 28, 1955, the Department of
Irrigation of the Government of India convened a
meeting before the World Bank's visit, in which
the waters of the five states (Punjab,
Rajasthan, Delhi, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and
Kashmir) were allegedly divided. It was also
noted that in case of shortage, the quota in
Kashmir would not change. Article 5 of the same
agreement states that the price of water will be
fixed separately. But now the central government
has backed down. It is clear that up to that
time Punjab was considered the sole owner of
water.
In 1955, water was sent from Bhakra Dam to
Rajasthan. But Punjab did not get any price for
it. 18500 cusecs of water is going to Rajasthan
from Harike headworks. This means that 5,23,864
liters of water is being looted every second.
Guess for yourself how much water has gone down
since 1955. But Badal was saying that he would
not give a drop of Punjab water to anyone. The
same is going to Haryana and Badal is refusing
to do the same. Only 20% of Punjab's water
requirement comes from canal water. The
remaining 80% is being pumped out through
tubewells which is reducing the water label.
1960 19 December Indus Water Treaty: Pakistan
An Indo-Pak treaty was reached in the city of
Karachi, India, through the mediation of World
Bank officials. It was attended by Prime
Minister Jawaharlal Nehru from India and Field
Marshal Mohammad Ayub Khan from Pakistan. This
is called the Indus Water Treaty. According to
which, India had to pay 60 million pounds
(actually 620,60,000 pounds) to Pakistan. In
return all the water of Ravi Beas Sutlej was to
be used by India.
This amount was to be paid by India in ten
installments over ten years. Only after paying
the full installments did India have the right
to stop the flow of water from these three
rivers Sutlej, Beas and Ravi to Pakistan. India
has not paid a single penny from its coffers.
All this money was donated by Punjabi
expatriates and the countries where Punjabi
expatriates lived. It is clear that the water of
the three rivers, Sutlej, Beas and Ravi has been
bought by the Punjabi diaspora from Pakistan
with the blessings of the donor countries. It is
owned by the people of Punjab. The Government of
India has no right to it.
The notification of the Indus Water Treaty
states that India can use all the water of the
Sutlej Beas Ravi after March 31, 1970. The
Government of India has failed to utilize any
part of this water. Instead, Punjab's water is
being plundered to meet the needs of Haryana,
Delhi and Rajasthan. Punjab has become poor.
If the Government of India had used all the
water of the three rivers Sutlej Beas Ravi as
per the Indus-Water Treaty, Punjab would be
truly California today. Now almost all the water
of these three rivers is flowing into Pak. The
Center remains the enemy of Punjab due to its
internal policy.
Indus-Water Treaty In 1960, from the Indus
Basin, the Indian states were allotted a total
of 158 lakh acres of water. This is how the
water was distributed. Punjab 72 lakh acre feet,
Rajasthan 80 lakh acre feet, Jammu and Kashmir
6.5 lakh acre feet. This does not include Delhi.
But now the Union government is forcibly taking
away Punjab's water and giving it to Delhi and
Haryana.
The huge amount of more than 60 million pounds
was paid by countries like USA, Canada, England
and New Zealand due to India's inability to pay.
According to the Indo-Pak partition, 3 out of 6
rivers were divided into Sutlej, Beas, Ravi and
India. The three had a water capacity of only
304 lakh acres. The three Pak rivers had a
storage capacity of 1430 lakh acre feet.
On November 1, 1966, Punjabi became a state and
Haryana came into being. Due to this structure
the Punjab Reorganization Act came into being.
Under Sections 78 and 79 of which the water of
Punjab came under the control of the Center.
Under Section 78, Bhakra, Nangal and Beas dams
were taken under the control of the Center. As
per Article 79, the Center will set up a Bhakra
Control Board. Earlier, it was on the state list
and was in the possession of the Punjab. Water
was registered in the state list. Under Section
80, the Beas project was taken over by the
Center.
Article 262 of the Constitution prevents the
Supreme Court from intervening in water matters.
If there is an interstate dispute, it is decided
by the tribunal, which is nominated by the
Center. Punjab is the sole owner of water.
Therefore, no tribunal can be set up in this
regard.
As per the 1966 partition, all the properties
were distributed according to the 60:40 ratio.
The western part of the Punjab was divided by
this ratio. But the water of the Yamuna flowing
in the eastern part, which supplied water to the
Jind Kalshis etc. area, was not counted for this
distribution.
March 24, 1976: Water is then distributed by the
Prime Minister. In which Haryana was given 35
lakh acre feet of water. Delhi and other states
were also given water according to the new
distribution.
On November 16, 1976, during the tenure of Giani
Zail Singh, the Haryana Government had sent Rs.
1 crore to the Punjab Government for acquisition
of land and commencement of canal excavation.
But Giani ji did not take any action.
In 1977, when Badal Sahib was the Chief
Minister, he demanded Rs. 3 crore from the
Haryana Government for canal digging through
letter No. 78/23/6/17. But the Haryana
government had sent only one crore.
It was decided by Badal Sahib, in a large
gathering, to start the excavation at the
Punjab-Haryana border with gold. But due to the
opposition of Tohra Sahib, it had to be
canceled.
The Prime Minister's Water Award, dated March
24, 1976, was challenged by Haryana in the
Supreme Court. Against which Punjab had also
filed a separate case in the Supreme Court.
Another meeting was held on October 3, 1977,
which was attended by five Chief Ministers. The
issue of hydropower was raised at the meeting.
Apart from Murarji Desai, Prime Minister, Surjit
Singh Barnala, Union Minister, Parkash Singh
Badal, Chief Minister of Punjab, Balbant Singh,
Finance Minister of Punjab, Bhairon Singh
Sekhawat, Shata Kumar, Virender Singh, besides
the representative of Kashmir.
February 20, 1978: Badal Government issued
Notification 113/5 and 121/5 for acquisition of
land for Sutlej Yamna Canal. Haryana was ruled
by Devi Lal at that time.
In 1980, Indira Gandhi became the Prime Minister
again. Indira Gandhi pressured Chief Minister
Darbara Singh to withdraw the case from the
Supreme Court. Darbara Singh's resignation was
also demanded.
An agreement was reached on December 31, 1981,
which included Indira Gandhi, Darbara Singh,
Bhajan Lal, Shivcharan Mathur, the Chief
Minister of Rajasthan. It was dishonest that the
amount of water was shown to be more than 175
lakh acre feet. The distribution of water under
the agreement was as follows. Punjab 42 lakh
acre feet, Haryana 39 lakh acre feet, Rajasthan
86 lakh acre feet, Jammu and Kashmir 6.5 lakh
acre feet, Delhi 2 lakh acre feet.
In 1983, the farmers of Bathida and Faridkot
filed a writ petition in the Punjab High Court.
In which giving water to other states was
declared unconstitutional. May Ra also had some
contribution in this. The writ petition was
heard by Chief Justice Shandhawalia on Friday,
November 25, 1983. However, the following
Monday, Shadhwalia Sahib was transferred to the
Patna High Court and the case was taken up by
the Supreme Court. The action of the Supreme
Court was declared unconstitutional. Because
this case was not interstate. Nor did the case
fall under the category of opposing judgment by
two benches. Not a single case has been heard
since then.
1983, November The canal construction directives
were also issued by the Center till December
1984. The total expenditure of the Center was
fixed at Rs. 204.30 crore. At that time
Dharamyudh Morcha was in operation in Punjab.
Therefore, this period was extended to December
1986.
On July 24, 1985, Rajiv Longowal reached an
agreement. At that time Punjab was a
governorate. Although the agreement was signed
by Longowal, it is called the Rajiv Longowal
Agreement. In fact, it was a Rajiv-Badal pact. I
have personal information about this. The ninth
item of the agreement was related to water.
Under which the formation of the tribunal was
considered. The tribunal will report within six
months. It was also agreed under the agreement
that the canal would be completed by August 15,
1986.
An ordinance to make the tribunal was issued on
January 24, 1986. Earlier, Justice B Bala was a
member of the Irandi Tribunal. However, on April
2, 1986, it was renamed the Ravi Beas Tribunal.
Justice AS Ahmadi of Gujarat High Court and
Justice PC Bala Krishnan of Kerala High Court
were nominated. This tribunal is known as the
Iradi Tribunal.
The Iradi Commission has increased the water of
Punjab to 1720 lakh acre feet. In reality, the
water was only 1.49 million acre feet.
1986, December. With the Haryana Assembly
elections coming up, Rajiv Gandhi announced that
the Sutlej-Yamna canal would be completed by
December 1987.
The report of the Iradi Commission was prepared
on January 30, 1987. Which was sent to the
concerned parties in May. This showed that the
water of both Punjab and Haryana has increased.
1990, July 23: Construction of canal started by
the Center. But despite an ultimatum from the
Babar Khalsa not to stop work on the canal, it
was attacked. Two engineers and 30 workers were
killed. Due to which the work was stopped, which
remained closed for about ten years.
On January 15, 2002, the Supreme Court directed
the Central Government to start excavation of
the canal.
On June 4, 2004, the Supreme Court again
directed the Center to bring the canal under its
control. The Center and Punjab were asked to
provide adequate security. The Punjab government
was asked to hand over the canal land to the
Center within a month and a half..
On July 12, 2004, instead of handing over the
Punjab land to the Center, Captain Sahib passed
the Punjab Termination of Agreement Act, 2004 in
the Punjab Vidhan Sabha. With this, all the
agreements after 1986 were revoked, but a
section 5 of the Act, "Protection of Existing
Judges", was passed to justify the water going
to other states first.
In fact, it was a great betrayal of the Punjab.
Because after 1986 there was no compromise. The
issue of water sharing was raised in 1966 at the
time of Punjab-Haryana partition. In 1987,only
the report of the Iradi Commission was sent to
the Punjab Vidhan Sabha. All the decisions that
were made before 1986 were personal. No decision
was taken by the Punjab government. The decision
taken by the government is to bring the agenda
in the Vidhan Sabha and pass it after debate.
Any decision that is not passed in the Vidhan
Sabha is not mandatory for any state. Whether it
was done by the Chief Minister or by the
President of the ruling party.
This resolution of Captain Sahib gave legal form
to all personal decisions regarding river
waters. Legal sanctioned medicine from Punjab.
Everybody gave legal form to past decisions
regarding river waters. As a result, Punjab has
accepted all the earlier decisions and there is
no point left in the Supreme Court today.That is
why the Governor approved it within an hour and
sent it to the Center to give legal form to all
personal decisions regarding the waters. As a
result, Punjab has accepted all the earlier
decisions and there is no point left in the
Supreme Court today.
On July 22, 2004, Haryana appealed to the Center
against which the Central Government had made a
Presidential Reference under Article 143 of the
Constitution and sent it to the Supreme Court
for its opinion. The sole purpose of the
resolution was to have no effect on the
decisions of the Iradi Commission and the
Supreme Court.
During the Assembly elections in February 2007,
Parkash Singh Badal announced that if an Akali
government was formed, he would immediately
repeal Article Five. But no action was taken to
form a government and forge a partnership with
Manmohan Singh. In fact,the Shiromani Committee
with a budget of Rs 100 crore was handed over to
a relative of Manmohan Singh.
On September 27, 2011, in another case in
Himachal Pradesh, the apex court ruled that the
Beas project was in Himachal Pradesh. He was not
given as much power as he was supposed to.
Therefore, the Himachal government is entitled
to about Rs 2,200 crore in compensation. The
interest on this amount will be different. The
alternative is to give total power, including
penalties to Himachal. Clearly obvious
How much power shortage is going to happen in
Punjab. Badal Captain and Kejriwal who are
aspiring for the crown of Punjab. They are
looting Punjab's water for their personal gain..
Badal Sahib, fooling the people of Punjab, is
saying every day, both father and son, that they
have to make any sacrifice.They will not give
even a drop of Punjab's water to any other
state. While 86 lakh acres of water is going to
Rajasthan every year through Bhakra canal. 59
lakh acre feet of water is going to Haryana from
Bhakra Main Canal through Narwana Branch Canal.
He was never mentioned in any way.
The Badal government has broken all the
boundaries of ambushing Punjab and Punjab
farmers for its own benefit. Even now on April
30, 2016, they have started supplying another
450 cusecs of water to Haryana through Barbala
canal.
The first 1000 cusecs of water was going to
Haryana from Punjab through Barbala Link Canal.
Which has now been increased to 1450 cusecs. For
which the banks of Bhakra in Sanori area have
been raised one and half feet. About which
Punjab has already received Rs. 370 lakh from
Haryana and another Rs. 95 lakh is to be
received.How much Punjab will be affected by
this increased 450 cusecs of water can be
estimated from this. This will transport about 6
billion liters of water to Haryana in an hour.
While Badal Sahib is talking about not giving a
drop.
Out of about one crore cultivable area of
Punjab, only 20 lakh acres are under canal
irrigation. Now with this new royal gift
millions more acres will be barren. In the case
of water where Badal Sahib has sided with
Punjab. There, Kejriwal has also sided with
Punjab. Kejriwal had pledged allegiance to
Punjab in the holy land of Muktsar.
Captain Sahib's "Presidential Reference" on the
Termination of Agreements Act 2004 was in the
Supreme Court. Haryana's application is now
being heard. In the matter of water sharing,
because Delhi is also a party. So he was asked
to give his affidavit. This will transport about
6 billion liters of water to Haryana in an hour.

The Kejriwal government took an affidavit
against Punjab saying that the Punjab government
had no right to pass the act. But to fool the
people of Punjab, Sanjay Singh made the
statement that the lawyer had made the statement
without meeting the head of the water board.
Which will be withdrawn. I even wrote an article
in detail at that time that Sanjay considers
Punjabis as ignorant and desolate.
The Kejriwal government has argued that the
affidavit was withdrawn without our consent.
However, the lawyer submitted his affidavit and
power of attorney prepared by the Kejriwal
government before the court.
Now the situation was that if Kejriwal's case
was accepted by the court, then the lawyer was
punishable for misleading the court. If the
lawyer's papers are to be believed, then the
Kejriwal government is to blame for misleading
the court.
Finally, the Kejriwal government petitioned the
court that we have settled the dispute with our
lawyer by resigning out of court. Now let our
side be considered the same as that given by our
authorized lawyer earlier. But here in Punjab,
Sanjay and AAP are lying to the Punjabis that
Kejriwal has withdrawn his first affidavit and
filed a petition in favor of a new Punjab.
