Water, air, sunshine, fossil fuels and minerals are the necessities for sustaining the life.Naturally nobody has a right of exclusive ownership of these resources and right to charge royalty or reap any kind of profit, as they never participated in their manufacture or production.Say a river emanates from permafrost mountain and destined to go through valleys and plains, to the sea.If a hydropower project is constructed over it, it does not utilise the water, it is merely creating a potential head by constructing a dam for working of turbines.After that this water is back in its natural course.Is there any moral or divine law fixing the rights of anyone on the basis of ethnic or religious, or tribal, or nationality or provincial, or racial divide?Unless a group of persons is deprived of their right for its free use, there is rightful claim for any royality!People in the adjoining areas can make a claim, only if the free use is denied to them or some of their rights are usurped.
