New Delhi: India strongly countered Pakistan at the United Nations, defending its decision to place the Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance and accusing Islamabad of prolonged hostility and support for terrorism.<\/p>\n
Responding during a UN event on World Water Day, India\u2019s Permanent Representative Harish Parvathaneni said New Delhi\u2019s patience had run out after decades of cross-border terrorism.<\/p>\n
Exercising India\u2019s right of reply, he stated that Pakistan had violated the spirit of the treaty by engaging in \u201cthree wars\u201d against India and orchestrating \u201cthousands of terrorist attacks.\u201d<\/p>\n
He emphasised that it is not possible to uphold a treaty in an environment of sustained hostility and violence. \u201cPakistan-sponsored terrorism has claimed the lives of thousands of innocent Indians,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
India\u2019s remarks come amid renewed tensions between the two countries, with New Delhi asserting that any bilateral agreements must be viewed in the context of security and continued cross-border threats.<\/p>\n
Officials indicated that India\u2019s position reflects a shift towards linking diplomatic and treaty obligations with ground realities, particularly in relation to terrorism and national security concerns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
