#DeepDive with Outlook | On April 23, 2025, India took an unprecedented step, announcing that the Indus Waters Treaty, a landmark water-sharing agreement with Pakistan, is now in abeyance.<br /><br />The move came just days after the terror attack in Pahalgam that left 26 civilians dead and reignited tensions between two nuclear-armed neighbours.<br /><br />For over six decades, the Indus Waters Treaty withstood the pressures of conflict—surviving the wars of 1965, 1971, and the 1999 Kargil War, as well as decades of political strain.<br /><br />Now, for the first time, India signals a formal departure.<br />But what does this suspension really mean? Can a country simply pause a binding international treaty? And at what cost?<br /><br />In this Deep Dive, we explore the history, legal frameworks, and implications of the abeyance on Indo-Pakistan relations.<br /><br />Reporter: Aranya Mukerji<br />Camera: Suresh K Pandey<br />Editor: Sudhanshu<br /><br />#IndusWatersTreaty #IndiaPakistanRelations #PahalgamAttack #Indus #Geopolitics #SouthAsia
