Pakistan's Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Asim Iftikhar Ahmad has handed over Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Senator Ishaq Dar's letter on India’s Indus Waters Treaty violations to President of the Security Council Leonor Zalabata Torres, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Friday.
The letter draws urgent attention of the Security Council to two illegal Indian infrastructure projects linked to Chenab River system aimed at water diversion, which reveal India’s intention to illegally alter the Treaty-governed flow and use of the Western Rivers, weaponizing water with dangerous implications for Pakistan’s water, food and economic security as well as regional stability and international peace and security.
The Security Council has been urged to take cognizance of this fragile and deteriorating situation and hold India accountable for its brazen violations.
The Permanent Representative also briefed the President of the Security Council on the overall situation in South Asia and India’s continued non-compliance with its obligations under UN Security Council resolutions on the Jammu and Kashmir dispute.
