Assam Opposition Raises Concerns Over China's Medog Dam

Imagine China is building a giant water project called the Medog Dam on a big river that flows into India.

Assam's leaders in India are worried.

They wrote a letter to their government, asking them to talk to China.

They're concerned the dam might cause big floods, change how the river works, and hurt the environment and economy in Assam.

They want agreements with China to make sure the river flows safely, that they get information about what's happening with the water, and that they get a warning before China releases a lot of water.

Assam is already dealing with climate change effects and feels the dam could make these problems worse.
