Pakistan Plans to Raise Indus Waters Treaty at UNGA

Pakistan’s prime minister, Shehbaz Sharif, is going to New York.

He is expected to attend a reception and meet U.S. President Donald Trump.

He is also scheduled to speak at the United Nations General Assembly on September 25.

Pakistan plans to discuss an agreement called the Indus Waters Treaty.

The treaty concerns water shared between India and Pakistan.

Pakistan wants to raise the issue because India has decided to put the treaty in abeyance.

This means the treaty is being kept inactive for now.

The article says these plans are based on sources cited in the report.
