Good luck in trying to stop the water. Most of the water from that river comes from watersheds located in India.

not stopping it the plan seems to be to divert it like china doing to brahmaputra

I am talking about Brahmaputra. 90& of the watersheds that feeds the river are in India.

90& of the water that goes into the Brahmaputra river in India comes from watersheds in india - Google search

The statement is incorrect. While a significant portion of the Brahmaputra's water within India originates from Indian watersheds, it's not 90%. A Mint article states that Indian officials say 60% of the water in the Brahmaputra comes from India, and 40% comes from Tibet. A NatStrat article suggests that 50% of the Brahmaputra River basin is in China, but it accounts for only 22 to 30% of the total basin's discharge. [1, 1, 2, 3]
Here's a more accurate breakdown:

• Tibet (China): Contributes a considerable portion of the Brahmaputra's water, particularly the flow from the three main tributaries. [1, 1, 3, 3]
• India: A major contributor, especially in the lower reaches of the Brahmaputra, with numerous tributaries entering the river within India. [3, 3, 4, 4]
• Bangladesh: The Brahmaputra flows through Bangladesh before emptying into the Bay of Bengal. [4, 4, 5, 6, 7]

The Central Water Commission of India estimates that 60% of the water in the Brahmaputra originates in India. [3]

Also, I vaguely remember someone on this or another forum remarking that, given the horrendous floods that strike Assam in the monsoon season, some reduction of water may even be helpful! Any substance to this?
