Since Modi assumed power in 2014, Pakistan has increasingly used IWT as an instrument to delay projects, said Uttam Sinha, a commentator on transboundary water issues, at a Delhi event.
India's Permanent Representative to UN Parvathaneni Harish refuted Pakistan's claims regarding the treaty & reiterated New Delhi's commitment to responsible water management even amid persistent cross-border terrorism.
A section of India’s Left has objected to suspending the IWT on humanitarian grounds. It's important for the govt to present a united stance—minus the communists—to the international community.
In interview to CNN, Dar said India's strikes were a 'wishful attempt to establish hegemony', and use of nuclear weapons in last week’s conflict 'was never on the table'.
While it is signatory to IWT, the Bank is merely 'a facilitator', Banga said. In the aftermath of Pahalgam terror attack, India put the water-sharing agreement with Pakistan in abeyance.
This comes at a time when India has put Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance & tensions are high between the 2 countries ahead of possible military action as response to Pahalgam terror attack.
The water flows in the Chenab, recorded at the Marala headworks, decreased from up to 35,000 cusecs Sunday to about 3,100 cusecs Monday morning, Pakistan's Dawn news reported.
Initiating the process of flushing now will also impact power generation at Baglihar and Salal, both run-of-the-river hydroelectric projects on Chenab river, it is learnt.
Rail reform must be politically and socially sustainable. Infrastructure ownership should remain sovereign, while privatisation should be limited to new services and assets.
Coal-based power generation fell 3% in 2025 while renewable capacity surged to 40% of India’s installed power mix, according to India Power Sector Review 2025 by CREA.
Pakistan military said it has assured Bangladesh of fast-tracked delivery of Super Mushshak trainer aircraft during high level defence meet held Tuesday.
Many of you might think I got something so wrong in National Interest pieces written this year. I might disagree! But some deserve a Mea Culpa. I’d deal with the most recent this week.
