The Hague court orders India to uphold Indus Water Treaty with Pakistan

In a major boon for Pakistan in its dispute over the ‘one-sided’ suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT), the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague has ordered India to suspend work on hydro projects and uphold the treaty.

 

The Hague-based court said the Indus Water Treaty between the two countries remained fully in force, as India had no justification for ending or suspending the agreement.
