TO CUT THE LONG STORY OF WARRING STATES OF INDIA SHORT - WHAT IS THE OPINION OF PEOPLE HERE ABOUT ESTABLISHING A FACT THAT ALL RIVERS OF INDIA ARE "NATIONAL ASSETS". ALL PROJECTS ON THESE RIVERS ARE "NATIONAL PROJECTS" NO STATES HAVE RIGHTS OVER THE NATIONAL RIVERS AND PROJECTS EXCEPT TO SHARE ITS WATERS AS DECIDED BY A SEPARATE AUTHORITY LIKE "SEBI" OR "CVC". NO SUCH NATIONAL RIVER OR NATIONAL PROJECT CAN BE TAKEN TO SUPREME COURT FOR ADJUDICATION EXCEPT THE SAID "RIVER AUTHORITY". SUCH ISSUES ARE ALWAYS RIGHT FROM EACH STATE'S VIEW AND WRONG ALWAYS FROM THE VIEW OF THE NEIGHBOURING STATE. THIS HAS BEEN CREATING HATRED AND ANIMOSITY BETWEEN STATES AS IF THEY ARE 2 SEPARATE NATIONS. IF INDIA CAN SHARE WATERS OF INDUS AND ITS TRIBUTARIES WITH PAKISTAN AND WATERS AND GANGA AND BRAHMAPUTRA WITH BANGLADESH WHY CANNOT THE INDIAN STATES PEACEFULLY AND HAPPILY THE BENEFITS OF "LOKMATA" RIVERS BETWEEN THEMSELVES? THERE SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING MISSING FROM OUR INDIAN PSYCHE - THIS IS BECAUSE WE GOT OUR FREEDOM "FREE OF COST" WE DID NOT SACRIFICE SUFFICIENTLY TO ACHIEVE OUR INDEPENDENCE. WE JSUT HAD A SITUATION WHERE THE RULERS WHO THOUGH BEING THE WINNER OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR, WERE WITHOUT ANY CAPACITY TO ADMINISTER OR EFFECTIVELY RULE A HUGE COUNTRY LIKE INDIA DUE TO HUGE LOSSES OF THEIR ELITE AND FINANCES AND THE RULERS WERE FACING AN INCREASED PRESSURE FROM THE FREEDOM FIGHTERS OF THE RULED. IF WE HAD SUFFERED LIKE JAPAN OR GERMANY WE WOULD HAVE BETTER APPRECIATED OUR "FREEDOM".
