India has loudly announced that it will build six canals in the upper reaches of the Indus River, not allowing a single drop of water to flow to Pakistan! India announced the canal plan on July 20, the day after our Yarlung Tsangpo Hydropower Station announced its commencement. In other words, India is using the plan to build artificial canals on the Indus River to counteract the influence caused by the Yarlung Tsangpo Hydropower Station and to ease internal conflicts within India.

In fact, the Indus River has many tributaries, with many tributaries flowing towards Pakistan and also many tributaries flowing towards India. Currently, India is mainly building canals on three larger tributaries of the Indus River, diverting them into India for irrigation. Actually, India's intention to do this is completely understandable, but whether India has the infrastructure capabilities now is still uncertain.

Actually, building canals is very simple for us. From the Sui Dynasty's Grand Canal, we know that even without construction machinery, relying on manual excavation, our ancient people could achieve it. The Dujiangyan Irrigation System, built over 2,000 years ago during the Qin Dynasty, is also achievable for a canal plan. Another example is the Zhengguo Canal, which is the same.

If India cannot surpass the craftsmen of the Qin Dynasty 2,000 years ago, then there's no need to talk about the rise of India. If India ultimately fails to implement the plan of six artificial canals, it can only be said that Indians are still at the level of ancient China more than 2,000 years ago.

In fact, Pakistan doesn't need to be afraid. If it comes to a critical moment, it can send the air force to destroy the dams on the Indus River, thereby ensuring that India cannot build dams for several years. India's actions are actually forced due to the great stimulation caused by the construction of the Yarlung Tsangpo Hydropower Station.

Although it does not cause any substantial harm to India, India always wants to save face, feeling that if India does not take action against such a large Yarlung Tsangpo Hydropower Station, it would have to silently endure, which is not the style of India.
