Dhaka and Delhi have agreed to share water-flowing data of six common rivers -- Manu, Muhuri, Khowai, Gumti, Dharla and Dudhkumar -- as both countries are working on water sharing deal.

Both sides reached an understanding at the two-day virtual technical committee meeting that ended yesterday.

"We have already shared data on the water flow of the six rivers. What we need to know is the amount of water used by the two countries from each of the rivers," said Malik Fida A Khan, a member of the committee and executive director at the Centre for Environmental and Geographic Information Services (CEGIS).
