India's Bold Move: Termination of Indus Waters Treaty

The Indus Waters Treaty has been described as a 'historic mistake' by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, who emphasized its recent termination as a strategic response to Pakistan. This decision reportedly promises substantial benefits for Jammu and Kashmir, particularly in tapping into its hydro power potential.

Sinha highlighted the impossibility of having both 'blood and water' flow together, implying that terror and dialogue cannot coexist, nor can terror and trade. The termination of the IWT, linked to the implications of the Pahalgam terror attack, positions India to solely benefit from its water resources.

The Lieutenant Governor also recognized the work of author Sant Kumar Sharma, while affirming the Government of India's dedication to capitalize on the nation's water resources for its citizens' benefit and infrastructure development. This strategic move will drive development, infrastructure projects, and provide justice and aid to terror victims in Jammu and Kashmir.
