Indus Waters Treaty Future Hinges on Pakistan Ending Terrorism
The Indus Waters Treaty is an agreement between India and Pakistan about sharing river water.
The Indian government says the treaty won't work in its current form.
They believe that if Pakistan stops terrorism against India, they can make a new agreement for sharing water.
The government thinks the old way of sharing water won't work anymore, and they need a different approach.
The Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) in its current form will not function again.
Provisions related to river water sharing need to be reactivated in a different form.
Reactivation is conditional on Pakistan ending terrorism against India.
Government sources emphasize that the present form of the treaty is not viable.
The future of the IWT hinges on addressing terrorism and revising the treaty's provisions.
