Indus Water Treaty Suspended

India–Pakistan Tensions Escalate

Pahalgam Attack

Militants killed 26 tourists in Pahalgam on April 22, triggering national outrage.

India’s Retaliation

India closed Wagah–Attari border and declared Pakistani defence advisers persona non grata.

Treaty on Hold

India has held the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance—halting water flows to Pakistan.

What Is Indus Water Treaty?

A World Bank–brokered pact allocating eastern rivers (Ravi, Beas, Sutlej) to India, western (Indus, Jhelum, Chenab) to Pakistan.

Strategic Stakes

Punjab & Sindh farmers rely on treaty waters for irrigation—suspension sparks fears of crop losses.

Attari Border

The Attari-Wagah crossing—the only land link—remains shut, stranding families and trade.

Persona Non Grata

All Pakistani defence advisers in New Delhi were expelled and declared persona non grata.

What’s Next?

Will diplomacy revive the Indus Waters Treaty, or are we on the brink of a new crisis? Stay updated.
