<b>Baglihar: Pak may go to Court of Arbitration</b><!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->After initial claims of victory and promise to accept the World Bank neutral expert's verdict on Baglihar power project, Pakistan is reportedly considering the option of going for Court of Arbitration over Raymond Lafitte's decision to approve the spillway gates of the dam, which Islamabad claims would help India regulate the flow of water.
........
<b>As India can still regulate water of Chenab River through spillway gates, therefore legal experts have started examining the decision in which neutral expert has held that spillway gates are in conformity with international practice and state-of-the-art,"</b> the official said.

The spillgates will allow India to de-silt the dam periodically to enhance its life.

Pakistan's main objection about the spillgates was that they could give India the ability to release water in large volumes in times of war, a contention the neutral expert reportedly said did not fall within his purview.

After winning battle they still have doubts or they just read fine prints.
Now Moron Singh should give this as another gift to his brothers in Pakistan.
