Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has threatened India over the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, warning New Delhi would not be allowed to take “even one drop” of water meant for Pakistan. Calling the Indus waters Pakistan’s “lifeblood,” Sharif vowed “no compromise” on treaty rights. His remarks follow similar threats from Army Chief Asim Munir, who recently warned of nuclear war, and politician Bilawal Bhutto. India suspended the 1960 treaty in May after the Pahalgam terror attack, accusing Pakistan of supporting terrorism. New Delhi plans to build a major 1,856 MW hydroelectric project on the Chenab without Pakistan’s approval. (PC: NDTV)
