India has suspended the Indus Waters Treaty: What does it mean

IndiaTimes Friday, 25 April 2025
Following a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, India has suspended the Indus Waters Treaty with Pakistan, halting data sharing and potentially allowing for increased water usage from the western rivers. This action marks a significant escalation in tensions, threatening Pakistan's water supply and agriculture, though immediate impact is unlikely due to infrastructure limitations.

Pakistan’s repeated threats over the Indus Waters Treaty appear to have little effect, as India remains firm on its stance. Despite Shehbaz Sharif’s push for treaty resumption following visits by Asim Munir and Bilawal Bhutto, Delhi signals strong diplomatic and strategic resolve, leaving Pakistan’s posturing largely ineffective. #ShehbazSharif #IndusWatersTreaty #PakistanThreat #IndiaPakistanTensions #IndusTreatyDispute #ShehbazSharifWarning #PakistanPushIndia #IndusWaterConflict #IndiaStrongStance #PakistanDiplomacy #WaterDispute #IndusRiverTreaty #PakIndiaRelations #ShehbazSharifNews #IndusTreatyUpdate Also Read Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif Says Pahalgam Attack Happened Because Of Destabilisation In Kashmir :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-pm-shehbaz-sharif-says-pahalgam-attack-happened-because-of-destabilisation-in-kashmir-7792351.html?ref=DMDesc Did Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif Say ‘I Condom’ While Reacting to Israel-Iran Conflict?

Pakistan Flood HORROR: 300+ Dead As Floods Turn North Pakistan Into Graveyard | Rescue Underway

Pakistan Flood HORROR: Pakistan is reeling from catastrophic monsoon floods that have killed at least 321 people in just 48 hours, the National Disaster Management Authority confirmed on Saturday. Most of the victims—307—were in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, where flash floods swept away entire villages and homes. Nine deaths were reported in Pakistan-administered Kashmir and five in Gilgit-Baltistan. Torrential rains, landslides, and washed-out roads are crippling rescue efforts, with more rainfall forecast. The provincial government has declared Buner, Bajaur, Swat, Shangla, Mansehra, and Battagram disaster-hit zones. Over 2,000 rescuers are working relentlessly, often on foot, to reach survivors trapped in debris, as machinery and ambulances struggle to reach cut-off areas. Many families refuse to evacuate, mourning loved ones buried beneath rubble. The government has issued an urgent rain alert, warning of more devastation to come. International attention is now on Pakistan’s fragile infrastructure and the scale of this unfolding humanitarian disaster. #PakistanFloods #MonsoonDisaster #ClimateCrisis #KhyberPakhtunkhwa #PakistanNews #FloodTragedy #DisasterRelief #BreakingNews #MonsoonPakistan #GlobalNews #ClimateDisaster #RescueEfforts #HumanitarianCrisis #SouthAsiaFloods #FlashFloods #DisasterUpdate #PakistanRain #FloodVictims #ExtremeWeather #ClimateEmergency ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.124~
