‘Drown in it’: Delhi minister Sirsa’s fiery retort to Bilawal Bhutto's threat on Indus water treaty
Saturday, 26 April 2025 Following the Pahalgam terror attack and India's suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, Delhi minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa strongly criticized Pakistan's Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari's threats. Sirsa condemned Pakistan's support for terrorism and warned its officials against provocative actions, as protests erupted in London over the killings. The escalating tensions highlight the strained relationship between the two nations.
In this exclusive interview, Atul Aneja, a renowned Foreign and Strategic Affairs Expert, discusses India's bold shift in foreign policy, focusing on the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty. Mr. Aneja sheds light on India's new strategic posture in South Asia and what it means for regional...
Public outrage has forced the Delhi government to pause its controversial plan to deny fuel to over 62 lakh "End of Life" vehicles — including cars, bikes, trucks, and even vintage automobiles. The now-on-hold EOL policy targeted petrol vehicles older than 15 years and diesel ones older than 10, with fuel stations set to use number plate recognition to block refueling.
But after massive backlash from citizens — especially those with well-maintained older vehicles and valid pollution certificates — the government is rethinking its move. Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa cited “technological challenges” and announced a shift in focus: targeting poorly-maintained vehicles instead of penalizing all old ones.

Pakistan's Bilawal Bhutto Zardari faced an awkward moment at a UN press briefing after a journalist fact-checked his claim that India was "demonising Muslims" following the Pahalgam terror attack. Bhutto alleged India was politicising the tragedy to vilify Muslims, but the journalist countered with firsthand experience, highlighting Muslim officers leading Indian Army briefings. Bhutto, visibly unsettled, admitted, "You're absolutely right." The episode casts doubt on Pakistan’s narrative as Bhutto leads a diplomatic team to counter India’s global stance post-Operation Sindoor.

At the United Nations Security Council, India fiercely rebutted Pakistan’s attempts to internationalize the Kashmir issue and challenge the Indus Waters Treaty. India’s UN Ambassador P Harish accused Pakistan of harboring terrorism and disrupting international peace, labeling it a “terror haven” and “serial borrower.” Meanwhile, Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar insisted Kashmir is a disputed territory and demanded UN intervention. This heated exchange highlights the escalating diplomatic tensions and the complex geopolitical battle over Kashmir and water rights in South Asia.

Pakistan is staring at a water disaster as India holds the Indus Waters Treaty of 1960 in abeyance. The flow of water from rivers like Chenab and Jhelum has plummeted, with Punjab province the worst affected. Water availability in the Indus system is down by over 10%, raising alarm for the approaching kharif season. Pakistan's key dams—Tarbela and Mangla—are also below optimal levels. The crisis follows India’s suspension of the treaty after the Pahalgam terror attack, and Pakistan has warned that blocking water flow could be considered an "act of war."
