In response to a tourist attack in Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) illegally, India suspended the Indus Water Agreement on Wednesday and canceled visas issued to Pakistani nationals.
Speaking to reporters after a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security-India’s highest decision-making agency on national security, the Foreign Ministry (MEA), described the “decisive reaction to cross-border terrorism” as a detail of five steps as part of this section.
Indian diplomat Vikram Masri told reporters in New Delhi, “The 1960 Indus Waters Treaty 1960 will be organized immediately, unless Pakistan ends its support for terrorism from cross -border terrorism.”
The Indus Water Treaty is a water sharing agreement between Pakistan and India, which has been facilitated by the World Bank. This gives India control over the three eastern rivers (Ravi, Beas and Stloss) of Sindh Basin, while it gives Pakistan authority over the three Western rivers (Sindh, Jhelum and Chenab).
In addition, he said, integrated check post attic will close with immediate effect. He added, “Those who have crossed the correct verification can come back from this route before May 1, 2025.”
The diplomat added, “Pakistani citizens will not be allowed to go to India under the SAARC Visa Visit Scheme (SEVS). In the past, any SEV visa issued to Pakistani nationals has been canceled, and the SVESESES visa is currently leaving any Pakistani national.”
Meanwhile, Arc Rawal also announced military, naval and air advisers at the Pakistani High Commission in New Delhi, Noon Greater, and said that they should leave the country within a week.
He added, “India is withdrawing its defense advisers from the Indian High Commission in Islamabad. These positions are considered to be canceled in the relevant top commissions.”
In addition, India will also reduce its overall power of the current 55 high commissions by 30, which the diplomat says will have an impact by May 1, 2025.
The development has come to the forefront of the worst attack on citizens in the country in almost two decades.
The firing also injured at least 17 people, who took place on Tuesday in Basaran in Pahalgam area of the Himalayas of Jammu and Kashmir, Jammu and Kashmir. The dead included 25 Indians and a Nepalese citizen, police said.
It was the worst attack on the citizens since the 2008 Mumbai shootings, and there was peace on a relative in the IOJK, where tourism has intensified in recent years as India’s insurgency has ended in recent years.
The attack is seen as the shock of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Victims of attackers
Two security sources told Reuters that security forces were immediately attacked. Later he reached the Pahalgam area and started combing the forests there, two security sources told Reuters. He added that in the past, the rebel sympathizers are suspected that about 100 people were called to the police stations and were questioned.
Police also released sketches of three of the four suspected attackers, dressed in traditional long shirts and loose pants, a security source said. He said there were about 1,000 tourists in the valley and about 300 local services and workers when the attack took place.
A small famous group, “Kashmir Resistance”, claimed responsibility for the attack in a social media message. He expressed dissatisfaction that more than 85,000 “external” region had settled in the region, which created “population change”.
“We are worried about the loss of tourists’ lives,” Pakistani Foreign Ministry spokesman Shafqat Ali Khan said in a statement. “We condole with the people near the deceased and wish to recover the injured.”
