Pakistan's Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar on Friday accused India of trying to break the Indus Waters Treaty. He said the current breaks by India harm the core of the treaty. This comes after Pakistan asked India why the flow of the Chenab river has changed. Mr. Dar said, "We witnessed in April this year India’s unilateral abeyance of the Indus Waters Treaty... But what we are witnessing now is material breaches by India that strike at the heart of the Indus Waters Treaty with escalating consequences both for regional stability and the sanctity of international law." After a terror attack in Pahalgam on April 22, India took tough actions against Pakistan, including stopping the treaty's application. The Indus Waters Treaty, made in 1960 and helped by the World Bank, controls the use of the Indus river and its tributaries between the two countries. Mr. Dar added that "India’s manipulation of water" has caused Pakistan’s Indus Commissioner to ask India for explanations. He said India's interference with water during a key farm season threatens lives and farming in Pakistan. He also accused India of stopping the sharing of vital water data and joint inspections required by the treaty. This has left Pakistan vulnerable to floods and droughts. Mr. Dar warned, "Suspension of water will be considered as an act of war."
