'Indus Water Treaty Not feasible to maintain': India serves notice to Pakistan, seeks Modification.

[lightoftruth]

India has sent Pakistan a formal notice seeking a review in the crucial Indus Water Treaty, arguing reassessment and negotiations of the pact over “fundamental and unforeseen” changes.

A report by PTI quoted government sources as saying that the notice to Pakistan was issued on August 30 under Article XII(3) of the Indus Water Treaty (IWT).

As per sources to News18, India, in the notice issued to Pakistan, stated that it was not feasible to maintain the same treaty in today’s scenario and needed to be reassessed.

World Bank is a party to this treaty.

Any unilateral steps taken by India could result in severe economic sanctions on India from the G7, NATO and EU.

"By the two governments"

So if Pakistan does not agree to the changes then the treaty reamains unchanged.

Ideally this treaty should have been done and dusted the moment Pakistan invaded in 65. Now you're writing useless letters. Make some noise, maybe you'll get something

We have seen threats of sanctions before, they never work.

We can simply stop adhering to the treaty.

"However under Article 62 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, a party can terminate its obligations or formally withdraw from a treaty including one of unlimited duration by invoking a ‘fundamental change of circumstances’ as having both significantly altered the bal of obligations and undermined the essential basis of its original consent to the international agreement"

Nope that is not how it works.
World Bank is broker of the treaty.

World Bank is not a part of G7 , NATO or EU.

Maximum world Bank can do is suspended the country's membership.

That means that country will not eligible for world Bank loans.

India already got full share on 3 eastern rivers. What more do you want? Nuclear war? That treaty was already outdated the day bastard dictator Ayub Khan sold 3 punjab rivers to India. New treaty should be more fair, like giving some share of water to eastern rivers so they don't dry out in winter. While India take some share from Chenab, Indus and Jhelum.

85 % waters of 6 rivers of Indus water system has been alotted to Pakistan.

It was not Ayub, if was Nehru who signed a bad deal.

Absolutely the new deal should divide all 6 rivers equally.

Even if it was Imran nothing would've happened. Remember Aricle 370 removal. No international clout for him.

PM Imran Khan wants citizens to stand for 30 mins every Friday for Kashmir. Ok, and do what?

Pakistanis don't know what they will do standing up for 30 minutes every Friday afternoon. Imran Khan has only said he will share the details soon.

It's not the number of rivers that matter, it's the amount of water. You can easily revitalize the lost rivers using canals from other 3 rivers. You simply let the precious water run to the ocean. We built canals from the water we got, that's why some rivers on your side dried up although it's within mandates of the treaty.
As per intl obligation the upper riparian state should supply 50% of the water to lower riparian state. As per the treaty, Pakistan is entitled to 80% of the water india is trying to re arrange the sharing.

Its not 85% or some other BS %. Pakistan got full share on 3 western rivers and India on 3 eastern rivers. This is where India need to give more share on eastern rivers while taking some from western.

Article 370 is worth the paper its written on, we still hold every single inch as we do before Modi time. So whats changed? Nothing. Infact after this so called 370, you endup being kicked out by PLA from thousand of square kms of territory when they used the spiked bats on you.

IK did beat the crap out of you though when he authorised swift retort on you. Made Modi look like a chimp.

You don't know what the hell you are talking about, good luck taking water from indus to gangu.
