Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar said on Monday that Pakistan’s right to water under the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) is its “inalienable right” and a lifeline that the country will protect. In a post on X, Tarar said India’s unilateral attempt to hold the IWT in abeyance had “no legal or moral standing” describing the move as a failed attempt that had caused India “nothing but embarrassment.” He also said the action was a clear violation of the “One Water-One Vision” principle endorsed by the United Nations.
