Modi Says No Water From India To Pakistan As Crisis Boils

Pakistan will not get water from rivers which India has control over, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed on May 22, as tensions between the two nuclear powers began to rise again.

The suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty was one of the measures India took against Pakistan after the April 22 attack on Pahalgam in Indian-administered Kashmir. New Delhi blamed Islamabad for the attack.

That was the first time India had suspended the treaty, which was brokered by the World Bank in 1960. The measure was not even taken during full-blown wars between the two countries. The treaty grants Pakistan exclusive use of three western rivers, Indus, Jhelum, and Chenab. It also allows India to utilize the eastern rivers Sutlej, Beas, and Ravi.

The war distribution treaty is considered essential for Pakistan’s agricultural sector, hydropower, and drinking water supply.

“Pakistan will have to pay a heavy price for every terrorist attack … Pakistan’s army will pay it, Pakistan’s economy will pay it,” Modi said at a public event in the northwestern state of Rajasthan, which borders Pakistan.

The attack on Pahalgam, which claimed the lives of 26 people, marked the beginning of a serious crisis between India and Pakistan.

The situation escalated on May 7 following deadly Indian retaliatory strikes against Pakistan. The two counties exchanged strikes across the Line of Control, the de-facto borders in the disputed region of Kashmir, as well as over the internationally-recognized border for the next three days. More than 70 people were killed on both sides by the time a ceasefire was declared on May 10.

Tension began to rise again on May 21, when Islamabad accused New Delhi or being behind a suicide bombing that targeted a school bus in the southwestern province of Balochista, killing at least five people. The Pakistani military vowed to hunt down the perpetrators.

All in all, the crisis between India and Pakistan appears to be still far from being over. Both sides apparently lost trust in each other. A new round of fighting may be near.

partly true. but what these jews do is not about the money they already control the monetary system and the banks and print money by the billions as they see fit. they dont care about brics either. sure it can play into part of their strategy to trigger a conflict between the east and west but on a grander scale they control both sides. they much rather want pakistan and india engangled in conflict war with iran and muslims fleeing to europe by the millions

nope. all abrahamic ideologies have lots in common. hindus respect their elders and ancestors instead of imagining a fictitious human to be origin of mankind. huge difference. massive.

soon the jewish engineered crisis will cause angry paki muslims to run towards europe on mass like a swarm of lucust. its exactly what the jews want they want to use islam as the broom to destroy europe there are 200 million or so pakis who will flee because they run out of water because the jews closed the tap. i wish pakistanis were smarter people and they would flee to israel on mass instead and take all the water from telaviv instead. and liberate palestine in the process.
