Indus Waters Treaty Time To Close The Taps On Pakistan And End Generosity, Says Arnab

In a stern message to Islamabad, India has issued a formal notice to Pakistan , calling for a review of the Indus Water Treaty. India argues that "fundamental and unforeseen" changes in circumstances necessitate a reassessment of the decades-old water-sharing agreement. This move signals a strong position from the Modi government, making it clear that terror and water can't flow together. As the diplomatic tension rises, tune in to Arnab's debate LIVE to discuss the implications of this pivotal development. India has formally issued a notice to Pakistan, seeking a review and modification of the Indus Water Treaty (IWT). The Modi government has called for changes to the decades-old agreement, which governs the sharing of waters from six rivers between the two nations. India argues that the current terms, which allocate 80% of the water to Pakistan and only 20% to India, are outdated and unfeasible, given the changing needs and population growth. This move is part of India's tougher stance on the treaty, with officials emphasizing that "blood and water can't flow together," signaling a potential shift in the longstanding water-sharing arrangement.
