This is what is happening in the North East, a new study has pointed out.

Water conflicts over the Brahmaputra

The Manasarovar is the highest body of freshwater lake in the world. It is fed by the Kailash Glaciers near Mount Kailash in Tibet Autonomous Region. It is the sources of four great rivers of Asia, namely the Brahmaputra, Ghaghara (tributary of Gangas), Sindhu and Sutlej (tributary of Indus). The 2,880 km-long trans-boundary river Brahmaputra originates as the Yarlung Tsangpo. After it flows 1,625 km it enters Arunachal as the Siang River. It finally appears in the plains as Dihang and after gathering the tributaries Dibang and Lohit it becomes the Brahmaputra in Assam. The rain fed Brahmaputra gathers the bulk of its volume in India. In Bangladesh, it is Jamuna and joined by the Ganges (Padma in Bangladesh) and Meghna and forming the world’s largest delta into the Bay of Bengal.

Hon’ble Governor’s attention drawn to RIMS

Sir,
Some days ago – could not remember the exact date, I saw a discussion in a local cable TV Channel regarding facilities provided by Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) such as free medical tests etc. Among the members of the panel there was the Director of RIMS who was telling about the various initiatives/achievements that had been taken up after he took over as the director. What was interesting was the Director was sort of complaining that he did not get much appreciation from the public for the good works that he was doing.
