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.
