Abstract
In terms of its importance as a strategic material water is gradually taking
the centre stage in the world. It is argued that in the decades to come water
would surpass oil and future wars would be fought over this scarce
commodity.. South Asia is one of the regions where nature has bestowed a
generous supply of water resources. But poor management and limited
cooperation on its use is a source of tension among countries of the region.
Pakistan-India relations in this respect are a case in point. Pakistan
recognized as a water scare country needs to do a lot of work in managing
and sustaining the commodity. Regional cooperation is of essence in meeting
the country’s needs. The article studies the water situation in Pakistan and
suggests measures for judicious use of water resources in the region.
