CutTheClutter: Leverage & strategic play as India pauses Indus Waters Treaty after Pahalgam, & Pakistan’s ’loss’

India has temporarily paused the Indus Waters Treaty—the water-sharing agreement with Pakistan. The decision came in response to the terror attack in Pahalgam that claimed the lives of 25 tourists and one Kashmiri local. This move could give India the space to expedite key infrastructure projects on its side of the border and rivers that flow here. While the treaty mandates certain obligations, India has also been pushing for amendment to its dispute resolution mechanism. In Episode 1646 of Cut The Clutter, Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta and Deputy Editor Moushumi Das Gupta discuss the implications of this pause, and the potential leverage it offers India.----more----Watch Cut The Clutter episode no 1164 here: https://youtu.be/pVp93u2IgSg
