India-Pakistan BIG Standoff: Can Pakistan Attack India Begin War Over Indus Water Rights | Explained

On April 23, 2025, India suspended the Indus Waters Treaty following a deadly terror attack in Kashmir, blaming Pakistan for cross-border terrorism. The move ends decades of controlled water sharing that was critical for Pakistan’s agriculture and survival. With 80% of Pakistan’s water supply at stake, leaders are calling this an “act of war.” As nationalist voices in Pakistan push for a military response, fears rise of a full-scale conflict between two nuclear-armed neighbors.

Hindu Terror Victims: Pahalgam Massacre and the Global Silence on Hindu Persecution [Video]

Hindu Terror Victims: Pahalgam Massacre and the Global Silence on Hindu Persecution

The bloodbath in Pahalgam is not an isolated tragedy—it is the latest chapter in a long history of violence against Hindu terror victims. Twenty-six innocent lives, mostly tourists, were killed not for profit or politics—but simply for being Hindu and Indian. The Hindu terror victims of Pahalgam now join the forgotten exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from 1990, the persecuted minorities in Pakistan and Bangladesh, and the silenced families across South Asia. Under Prime Minister Modi, India is no longer passive—abrogation of Article 370, Balakot strikes, and upcoming decisive actions mark a new era. This episode examines how India is preparing to respond, why the world looks away, and what it means for the future of Hindu terror victims worldwide. The time for silence is over. #HinduTerrorVictims#PahalgamMassacre #ModiAgainstTerror #NeverForget1990 #JusticeForHindus ~GR.122~PR.282~HT.318~
