And this has been affecting the ecology, environment and livelihoods of millions in Bangladesh.
Even though the neighbours share 54 rivers, and the JRC has been working since 1972, only one water-sharing deal – the Ganges -- was signed, and that too, two and a half decades ago. That treaty is set to expire in 2026.
The water ministers of the two countries have so far met 37 times and there have been many meetings of secretaries and technical committees. Yet, the JRC has very little to show for.
same **** different population performing same way.
No matter where humans deny life as eternity changes population here ancestries rather believe in immortal intellectual minds than relative evolving mutually alive now.
