Pakistan PM warns any Indus water diversion will be an ‘act of war’
- Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif warned at the UN that diverting Pakistan’s Indus waters would be treated as an “act of war.”
- Sharif said India’s decision to hold the Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance has no legal basis, calling the treaty valid and binding.
- He said water must not be “weaponised” and rivers should be used to nourish nations rather than divide them.
- Sharif also called for a “just and fair” solution to the Kashmir dispute and urged South Asia to avoid another military confrontation.
