This book examines Indias transboundary river water disputes with its South Asian riparian neighbours Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan. It explores the history of disputes and cooperation over the transboundary river water in this region as well as discusses current disputes and future concerns. It analyses how and why existing transboundary river water sharing treaties between India and its South Asian riparian neighbours are confronted with challenges. The book indicates that Indias transboundary river water disputes with its South Asian riparian neighbours are likely to escalate in coming years due to the widening of the demandsupply gap in the respective countries. It further shows the impact of bilateral relations on the resolution of transboundary river water disputes, even as cordial relationships do not always guarantee the absence of river water disputes between riparian states. The book looks at some key questions: How political are Indias transboundary rivers water disputes in South Asia? Why do the roots of Indias river water disputes with Bangladesh and Pakistan lie in the partition of the British India in 1947? Why are there reservations against Indias hydroelectricity projects or allegations of water theft? Is it possible to resolve transboundary river water disputes among these South Asian countries? This book will greatly interest scholars and researchers working in the areas of river management, environmental politics, transnationalism, water resources, politics and international relations, security studies, peace and conflict studies, geopolitics, development studies, governance and public administration, and South Asian studies in addition to policymakers and journalists.
