If we add any non-zero q on the left, some charges flow from the ground into the conduction region and become new static equilibrium. The right side is not affected in this case. | |

Also, suppose I don't want to add any q on the left side: what would happen on the left side then? Would I have a potential that is constantly 0 or a constant electric field? | |
