The water retention accordingly would also reduce the navigability of the Barak’s two downstream channels, the Surma and Kushiyara rivers. Due to this being a major ecological issue and can affect major areas and countries in Asia, we are requesting all support from the Government in tackling this issue.\r\n","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":1,"created_at":"2011-12-01T12:50:55.000Z","updated_at":"2020-02-16T19:27:40.550Z","rejected_at":"2017-06-21T12:36:55.234Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2011-12-01T12:50:55.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":null},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
