China's Dam Project Raises Geopolitical Concerns for India

China is building a massive dam in a river that flows into India and Bangladesh.

This has caused concern because the dam could change the river's water flow, leading to big floods or making the river dry up.

India is worried China could use the dam to gain power.

The article suggests that India wants to share water agreements with China and Bangladesh to manage the potential risks from the dam.

The author warns about the weaponization of development through large infrastructure projects, suggesting they should be a collaborative effort rather than a tool of power.
