26 people were killed in a terrorist attack in Kashmir's pahalgam area on april 22. Following this attack, the central government is taking various strict measures against Pakistan. As part of this, the indus river Water Treaty was suspended. The indus river Water Treaty is one of the most important river water agreements between the world's countries. This agreement, which was in force for more than 60 years between the two hostile countries, is now suspended by India. Due to this, it is said that agriculture will be affected in various parts of Pakistan. In this context, the central government, which has suspended the indus river Treaty, is planning to build two water reservoirs on the Indus River. It is said that these water reservoirs will enable india to collect and use most of the water of the Indus River. If these two reservoirs are completed, india will be able to easily control the flow of the Indus River.
The central government has not taken such a decision following the pahalgam attack. Planning and consultations have been going on for many years, and work is currently underway on that basis, according to reports. Powered By Former indus river Water Commission Chairman AK Bajaj, in an interview with NDTV, said that if these two reservoirs are built, india will be able to use most of the water of the Indus River. It can be stored. Two reservoir projects, Bagal Tal and Bursar, are currently being intensified. Once completed, it is said that this water can be diverted to the states of Rajasthan, Punjab, and haryana and meet the agricultural needs of those states. The indus river Water Treaty was signed between india and pakistan in 1960. Despite occasional conflicts between india and pakistan, this river water treaty has remained in force. According to this, india is given full rights to use the water of the three rivers Sutlej, Beas, and Ravi, known as the eastern tributaries of the Indus River. pakistan can use the three rivers Indus, Jhelum, and Chenab, known as the western tributaries. india is allowed to use a certain amount of water in this.
