I wonder and hope he knows
why he is concerned.
First point:
How much is Luit fed by Champu and how
much by the rivers in Assam?
Does Gogoi know?

Gogoi concerned over China
plan

Guwahati, Oct 24: Expressing concern over China's
reported plan to construct a dam on river Brahmaputra in that country to
divert 200 billion cubic metre of water, Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi
today urged Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to take up the issue with Beijing.
Damming and diversion of such huge quantity of water would hit the
state's economy, he said in a statement adding the government would soon
constitute an experts committee to study the matter.
The
Brahmaputra-Barak-Meghna river system contributes almost one-third of the
total surface water resource of the country and any large-scale diversion of
this water will have serious repercussions on the interests of the N E region
and the country as a whole, he said.
He sought the Prime Minister's
intervention to safeguard the interests of the people of the state as well as
the entire country.
China is reportedly planning to diver the water to
feed its Yellow River.
