Union Home Minister Amit Shah confirmed India has suspended the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty, vowing it will “never be restored” after the Pakistan‑backed Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, 2025 . He emphasized India’s sovereign right to divert river waters to Rajasthan, stating Pakistan “will be starved of water” . Reflecting on national security, Shah lauded Operation Sindoor—the missile strike campaign launched in May—as decisive, underlining the power of India’s indigenous Akash and BrahMos systems to reshape regional dynamics. He added that such actions sent a “strong message” to Pakistan on cross‑border terrorism and water security, reinforcing India’s stance on protecting its interests. (PC: PTI)
