Pakistan Faces Severe Water Crisis As Indus Waters Treaty Still In Abeyance | Punjab Hit Hardest

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." #PakistanWaterCrisis #IndusWatersTreaty #IndiaPakistan #PunjabDrought #ChenabRiver #IRSA #WaterWar #TarbelaDam #ManglaDam #KharifSeason #IndusRiver #JhelumRiver #WaterShortage #CrossBorderTensions #Geopolitics #IndiaNews #PakistanNews #ClimateCrisis #SouthAsiaCrisis #BreakingNews ~HT.318~GR.122~

‘Blood, Water Can’t Flow Together’ Indus Water Treaty To Remain In Abeyance | India- Pakistan War

In a bold statement amid rising tensions, India has decided to put the Indus Water Treaty in abeyance. Quoting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) reiterated, “Blood and water can’t flow together.” This symbolic yet significant suspension marks a sharp turn in India's diplomatic stance, highlighting deepening hostilities. The decades-old treaty, brokered in 1960, governs water sharing with Pakistan. The announcement is expected to escalate regional tensions and draw global attention. MEA emphasized the move reflects India’s evolving security priorities and strategic assertiveness. #IndusWaterTreaty #ModiSpeech #IndiaPakistan #MEA #BreakingNews #PMModi #IndiaNews #WaterPolitics #IndusTreatySuspended #BloodAndWater #ModiWarning #IndiaGeopolitics #PakistanIndiaTensions #IndiaForeignPolicy #SouthAsiaNews #DiplomacyCrisis #IndiaMEA #NationalSecurityIndia #WaterDispute #ModiLatest Also Read Pakistan Appeals, But India Stands Firm: Indus Waters Treaty to Remain Paused :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pakistan-appeals-but-india-stands-firm-indus-waters-treaty-to-remain-paused-4153729.html?ref=DMDesc India To Keep Indus Waters Treaty Suspended Until Pakistan Ends Cross-Border Terrorism: MEA :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-to-keep-indus-waters-treaty-suspended-until-pakistan-ends-cross-border-terrorism-mea-4152251.html?ref=DMDesc India Begins Work On Hydroelectric Projects In Kashmir Amid Indus Treaty Suspension With Pakistan: Reports :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-begins-work-on-hydroelectric-projects-in-kashmir-amid-indus-treaty-suspension-with-pakistan-r-4143719.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~

Indian Diplomat REJECTS U.S Role In Ceasefire, PAK Begged To India For Stopping Operation Sindoor

India’s firm stance on terrorism led to a ceasefire after four days of intense cross-border fighting. Ambassador Vinay Kumar stated that Pakistan initiated a truce request on May 10, following India’s decisive military retaliation under Operation Sindoor. The ceasefire was reached directly between the two militaries without any third-party mediation, despite U.S. claims. The conflict was sparked by a deadly April terror attack in Kashmir, which India blamed on Pakistan-based groups. Kumar emphasized that India will respond to every act of terror with strength, rejecting nuclear blackmail or diplomatic double standards. #IndiaPakistan #Ceasefire #KashmirConflict #ZeroTolerance #OperationSindoor #VinayKumar #PakistanCeasefire #CrossBorderTensions #IndiaStrikesBack #AprilAttack #NoMediation #SouthAsiaNews #Diplomacy #NationalSecurity #PakMistake #KashmirAttack #TerrorResponse #IndiaDefense #PakistanNews #IndiaPolicy #ModiGovt #IndiaFirst #GlobalTerror #IndianArmy #PakistanArmy #TrumpDismissed #BilateralCeasefire #NoBroker #Pahalgam #Terrorism #NuclearThreats Also Read Pakistan Appeals, But India Stands Firm: Indus Waters Treaty to Remain Paused :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pakistan-appeals-but-india-stands-firm-indus-waters-treaty-to-remain-paused-4153729.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Rejects PM Modi's Remarks On Operation Sindoor, Calls It 'Provocative, Inflammatory Assertions' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-rejects-pm-modis-remarks-on-operation-sindoor-calls-it-provocative-inflammatory-asserti-4153615.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan’s Envoy To Bangladesh Goes On Leave Amid Alleged Honeytrap Scandal :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-s-envoy-to-bangladesh-goes-on-leave-amid-alleged-honeytrap-scandal-4153463.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~
