As per the treaty, the two nations established the commission to work for the common interests and sharing of water resources, irrigation, floods and cyclones control. The studies and reports of the commission contributed directly to the efforts of both nations to resolve the dispute over the [[Sharing of Ganges Waters]], facilitating bilateral agreements in 1975, 1978 and finally in 1996.&lt;ref name=ganges&gt;{{cite book |last=Haq |first=Enamul |year=2012 |chapter=Ganges Water Sharing |chapter-url=http://en.banglapedia.org/index.php?title=Ganges_Water_Sharing |editor1-last=Islam |editor1-first=Sirajul |editor1-link=Sirajul Islam |editor2-last=Jamal |editor2-first=Ahmed A. |title=Banglapedia: National Encyclopedia of Bangladesh |edition=Second |publisher=[[Asiatic Society of Bangladesh]]}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> &lt;references /&gt;<br /> <br /> {{Bangladesh-India relations}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Water supply and sanitation in Bangladesh]]<br /> [[Category:Water supply and sanitation in India]]<br /> [[Category:Bangladesh–India relations]]<br /> [[Category:Rivers of India| ]]<br /> [[Category:Water management authorities in Bangladesh]]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{Bangladesh-gov-stub}}<br /> {{India-gov-stub}}</div>
