Bangladesh's interim government led by Syeda Rizwana Hasan seeks to revive Teesta water-sharing treaty talks with India.
Bangladesh's interim government, led by water resources adviser Syeda Rizwana Hasan, aims to revive dialogue with India on the Teesta water-sharing treaty. Hasan emphasizes the need for adherence to international water distribution principles. Despite a draft treaty in 2011 failing to gain approval due to opposition, she remains hopeful for a resolution through discussions. If unresolved, Bangladesh may consider international legal frameworks. Currently, only eight out of over 54 shared rivers have water-sharing agreements.
