The Bihar Chief Minister, Mr Nitish Kumar, on Monday demanded that the Centre review the Ganga water sharing treaty with Bangladesh as he claimed that “gross injustice” has been meted to the State in the agreement. “Though it is an international issue, but gross injustice has been meted out to the interests of Bihar while signing the Ganga Water Sharing Treaty with Bangladesh,” Mr Kumar told reporters on the sidelines of his ‘Janata Darbar' programme. The water sharing problems continued since the Independence but what was necessary is that the Ganga Water Sharing Treaty with Bangladesh be reviewed, he said.
