IWT is definitely a visual at the moment. Any meaningful diversion of water is atleast 6-7 years away. At this time, it can only have nuisance value in terms of water data sharing putting Pakistan under difficult situation. During lean months, this could pose some difficulties. Even at this time the masses are made to believe that a catastrophe has fallen, if the gates of the dams are either closed or opened. When closed, it is called an attempt to create a drought and when opened, it is with an intent to flood. Awam (both sides) is fully convinced about these narratives. IWT would become more and more of an emotive issue, in the coming years.
370 is not just about attacks but much more. It is also not about changing the demographics as claimed by many posters incorrectly. The details of the same have been discussed in detail on the relevant thread. After all, it has been a troublesome issue for so many decades. Wounds can’t be healed in just a few years. And one Pulwama can’t derail it either.
Moreover, these are just two factors. How big or small can change with time. This is just a start.
