Indian government sources have firmly rejected Pakistan's Finance Minister Ishaq Dar's warnings regarding the Indus Waters Treaty, citing Pakistan's continued support for cross-border terrorism as a primary barrier to compliance.
Pakistan has threatened that any distortion of the 1960 treaty could destabilize the region, while India maintains that its infrastructure projects are fully compliant with the treaty's technical provisions.
The diplomatic standoff persists as Pakistan seeks international intervention, while India insists that the treaty cannot be weaponized to ignore the fundamental issue of state-sponsored terror.
