i hope it is help full ;

Explanation:

Punjab and Haryana, the main parties involved in this dispute, are both agricultural surplus states, also termed as the ‘granary of India’. Both states produce large quantities of grains. In view of the scarcity and uncertainty of rainfall in this arid area, irrigation is the mainstay of agriculture and is responsible for its tremendous progress. With the introduction and widespread adoption of high-yielding varieties of food grains by forward looking farmers of these states, irrigation became increasingly important from the late 1960s onwards. Through an inter-state meeting, an initial agreement on the sharing of the waters of the Ravi and Beas after partition of India was reached in 1955.

 

With the reorganization of Punjab in November 1966, Punjab and Haryana were carved out as successor states. Thereafter, the present dispute between Punjab and Haryana about Ravi-Beas water started. Four perennial rivers, Ravi, Beas, Satluj and Yamuna, flow through these states.

 

As a result of protests by Punjab against the 1976 agreement allocating water from Ravi-Beas, further discussions were conducted (now including Rajasthan as well), and a new agreement was accepted in 1981. This agreement faced opposition and a series of events led to the constitution of a tribunal to examine the Ravi-Beas issue in 1986. Both states sought clarifications of aspects of the award by this tribunal, but the centre has not provided these. Hence, the original award has not been notified (listed in the government gazette to give it final force), and does not have the status yet of a final, binding decision
