After killing 26 innocent citizens in the terrorist attack on April 22 in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, India decided to postpone the Indus Water Treaty, implemented since 1960. India blamed Pakistan for the attack and then attacked the terrorist bases in Pakistan and PoK under the four -day military operation ‘Operation Sindoor’. One reason for Pakistan’s furore is that under this agreement, it gets water from three major rivers from India. The adjournment of the treaty can have a direct impact on this supply.
China can interfere with Indus Water Treaty
Meanwhile, China has also shown interest in this issue. A report in conversion states that China can interfere with the Indus Water Treaty, which can further increase regional tension. India fears that China may disrupt the flow of rivers flowing from its border to India.
The Chinese media has expressed the possibility of using water as a weapon, describing India as ‘aggressive’. At the same time, China has also announced that it will accelerate the monsoon dam project on the tributary of Indus, which will benefit Pakistan and increase strategic pressure on India.
Many experts in India believe that the conditions of the Indus Water Treaty have been more generous for Pakistan. About 65% of Pakistan’s population lives in the Indus basin, while in India this number is just 14%. In such a situation, this tough stance of India has put Pakistan in a strategically uncomfortable position.
China came forward to help Pakistan
China is now considering itself an important party of the Indus Water Treaty. The Chinese media has warned India as aggressive on this issue that if India uses ‘water as weapons’, it can have serious consequences. Reports also mention that the source of the Indus River is in the western Tibet region of China, which makes the dispute more sensitive. Along with this, China has also announced that it will expedite the construction work of the monsoon hydro project on the tributary of Indus in Pakistan. This step is also considered a diplomatic message for India.
