  • Indus Waters Treaty and Resolution of Water Conflicts Between Two Nuclear Nations (Pakistan and India)
    Indus Waters Treaty and Resolution of Water Conflicts Between Two Nuclear Nations (Pakistan and India). ABSTRACT This paper attempts to explore the correlation between identity and power as processes through the case study of Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) as it has played a vital role in conflict resolution on water issues between the two historical rivals Pakistan and India and provides an insight into the evolution in the relationship between the two countries. The paper also explores the Indian hegemony and power asymmetry between the two countries in an historical context, as well as how the relationship between the two nations shaped and affected the water agreements between the two countries. The analysis focus on how discourses on both sides of the border highlighting the issue in the post IWT. The case study of IWT will be used as an evidence to support the above assertions, and a good example of cooperation between the two nuclear neighbours as against all the odds, both countries honestly maintained this treaty in letter and spirit over the period of three full wars (in 1947, 1965 and 1971 and one limited war in 1999), but now the future and stability of this treaty is questionable due to the lack of cooperation. The new water dispute is more serious and war threatening because of the global climate, politics and economic changes. Keywords: IWT, Conflict Resolution, Hegemony, Power Asymmetry, Cooperation, Nuclear, Up-stream, Down-stream Introduction “Fierce national competition over water resources has prompted fears that water issues contain the seeds of violent conflict. …If all the world’s peoples work together, a secure and sustainable water future can be ours.” (Kofi Annan, World Water Day 2002) 1.

  • Visit to Leh-Ladakh to Attend the Sindhu Darshan Festival (12Th -15Th June 09)
    VISIT TO LEH-LADAKH TO ATTEND THE SINDHU DARSHAN FESTIVAL (12TH -15TH JUNE 09) 1. Sindhu Darshan Festival I was invited by the Chairman Ladakh Hill Development Council to attend the week-long Sindhu Darshan festival starting from 12th of June. The festival was graced by Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, Shri Omar Abdullah who was the Chief Guest on the Occasion. I had the privilege to become the guest of Honour at the Polo-match which was held on 13th June, 2009 at the polo ground Leh. The Sindhu Darshan festival is held every year mairly to highlight the unique culture, tradition and landscape of the Ladakh region, to the rest of the world. It is also aimed at promoting tourism which is the backbone of the region. 2. Importance of Ladakh as a Traditional Buddhist Region. Ladakh has assumed important significance as one of the few regions left in the Himalayan belt and in the world in having a rich thriving Buddhist culture akin to Tibetan Buddhism. The fact that it has the maximum population of traditional Buddhists in India necessitates periodic visits to this region even though it is beyond the purview of the commission. This will go a long way in respecting the aspirations of the Buddhist community of Ladakh also considering the fact that there is not a single traditional Buddhist representation in the parliament from this region or elsewhere in the entire nation. 3. Two day visit to the Rizong and nunnery. I went in a two day tour to the Rizong nunnery which is in a remote and far flung region of Ladakh.

  • 11 Cultural Attractions of India
    MODULE – 3 Cultural Attractions of India Cultural and Heritage Aspects of Tourism in India 11 Notes CULTURAL ATTRACTIONS OF INDIA Attractions of Indian Culture refer to the way of life of the people. It can be their language, religion, dance, music, architecture, food, and customs. Since India is a large country with a huge population, the culture differs from place to place. India is also home to many religions and has many festivals to celebrate. In any given month of the year there is bound to be a religious festival. It might be Baisakhi, Holi, Eid, Mahavir Jayanti, Buddha Purnima, Guru Purab, Dussehra, Diwali, or Christmas. Festivals are an important part of the culture of our country. These festivals are characterized by colour, gaiety, enthusiasm, prayers and rituals. Foreign tourists are often struck by the scale and multiplicity of Indian Fairs and Festivals that have evolved in the society. Hence Cultural components form a major part of Tourist attractions in our country. Foreign tourists visit India or when domestic tourists travel out of their city to another place, they must make it a point to be a part of these fairs and festivals that are being celebrated and held in that particular city or place. An interesting example would be the Dussehra festival which is celebrated in Mysore or in Kullu in Himachal Pradesh. If they are in Delhi then that ever so popular International Trade Fair held at Pragati Maidan from 14th November to 27th November is a place to be visited. Here you can witness the colours, heritage and products of the entire country displayed by all the states.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT This dissertation discusses the construction of socio-spatial landscapes in Leh, Ladakh and elucidates the relationships between stakeholders in the tourism arena, conservation profession, regional and state government, and local civil society. It explains processes of urban regulation, juxtaposing the (re)production and representation of Ladakhi architectural heritage both during the conservation of historical buildings and during the construction of new tourist accommodations. Qualitative ethnographic research and spatial studies were conducted to investigate how competing discourses on Ladakhi heritage generated by state-based tourism industries and by non-governmental organizations are shaping building traditions, residence patterns, and livelihoods for resident Ladakhis. Leh’s built environment is a product of numerous contestations and negotiations between residents, NGOs and the state in places I call heritage construction sites: architectural conservation projects and new guest-house construction projects, respectively. In this study, I pinpoint how Ladakhis identify with or contest the transformation of their urban landscape, answering the question “whose heritage is it?” ACCOMMODATING CONSERVATION: REGULATING ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE IN A HIMALAYAN TOURIST TOWN by Jamie K.
