NEW DELHI: Days after India put the Indus Waters Treaty on hold, triggering protestations from Pakistan, in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terrorist attack , PM Narendra Modi on Tuesday said the water, which belonged to India, would flow in India’s favour and be used by India only.
“Pehle Bharat ke haq ka paani bhi bahar ja raha tha... ab Bharat ka paani Bharat ke haq me bahega, Bharat ke haq mai rukega aur Bharat ke hi kaam aayega (Earlier, even the water belonging to India was flowing out, now India’s water will flow for India’s benefit, will stay here for India’s benefit and will be utilised for India only),” the PM said at an event organised by ABP Network.
The remarks came as IAF gears up to carry out a major air combat exercise close to the international border in Rajasthan. Frontline fighters such as Rafales, Mirage-2000s and Sukhoi-30MKIs as well as force-multipliers will be part of the exercise, coming close on the heels of naval drills in the north Arabian Sea.
Both armies spoke over the DGMO hotline Tuesday, with the Indian side raising the issue of Pakistan army posts opening “unprovoked” small arms fire at several locations across the LoC. Firing continued for the 12th successive night.
