Diplomatic Setback for India – World Bank’s Clear Stance on Indus Water Treaty Emerges

The World Bank has made it clear that the Indus Waters Treaty cannot be suspended unilaterally, rejecting claims by India of suspending it following the Pahalgam Falls Operation.

In a recent interview with CNBC, World Bank President Ajay Banga clearly stated, “There is no clause in the treaty that allows for its unilateral suspension.”

The World Bank President added, “The Indus Waters Treaty can only be terminated or amended with the mutual consent of both parties.”

He further emphasized that the World Bank’s role in the treaty is primarily that of a facilitator.

Defense experts stated that the World Bank President’s recent remarks regarding the Indus Waters Treaty prove that India cannot unilaterally end the agreement.

They further noted that the unilateral suspension of the treaty would constitute a serious violation of international law.

According to defense experts, India’s nefarious intentions have been thoroughly thwarted following the World Bank’s clear position.
