India’s Bold Steps Against Pakistan After Deadly Kashmir Attack
India has taken strong action against Pakistan following a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir. The attack killed 26 people, including 25 Indian tourists and one person from Nepal. India blames Pakistan-based terrorist groups for the assault. In response, the government has announced serious steps, showing zero tolerance for cross-border terrorism.
Suspension of Indus Waters Treaty
India’s bold steps against Pakistan include suspending the Indus Waters Treaty. This treaty, signed in 1960, divided the Indus River waters between the two nations. Now, India has halted cooperation on water sharing until Pakistan acts against terrorism. The Indian government said the treaty will remain suspended until Pakistan takes strong and visible action.
Closure of Attari-Wagah Border
Another major move is the closure of the Attari-Wagah border. This is the only road link between India and Pakistan. India has shut down this route and given people who crossed into India until May 1 to return. This closure marks one of the strongest actions taken by India in recent years.
