Amid strong signals that Pakistan may force it to change its position, Prime Minister Narendra Modi rejected Pakistan on the Indian Waters Treaty. Modi, in his speech to his fellow countrymen on Monday night, condemned in a driverless measure against Islamabad, most clearly showing that despite the ceasefire, India will not reconsider its decision to suspend the Indian waters treaty. “Blood and water cannot flow together,” he said.
Shelving the Treaty of Indian Waters
After the Pahargam terrorist attack, India immediately announced that the Indian Waters Treaty was shelved. However, this is not a knee reaction, as New Delhi earlier asked Islamabad to reconsider the treaty. However, instead of proactively negotiating the sharing of rivers, Pakistan threatened to move to the World Bank.
