JAMMU: Lieutenant Governor Shri Manoj Sinha launched a monograph 'Indus Water Treaty-Mirroring the Facts' authored by Shri Sant Kumar Sharma, at Jammu today. In his address, the Lieutenant Governor congratulated the author on his remarkable work to bring out various historical aspects of 'Indus Water Treaty'. He said the thoughtful and timely monograph offers interesting insights on 'Indus Water Treatyâ with Pakistan and Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji's decisive move to terminate the treaty post Pakistan Sponsored Pahalgam Terror Attack.
âIndia has made it clear that blood and water cannot flow together, terror and talk cannot go together and terror and trade cannot happen together. Termination of 'Indus Water Treaty' is a befitting response to Pakistan and it will have far-reaching consequences since it's dependent on Indus River system,â the Lieutenant Governor said. The Lieutenant Governor said the historic step has marked a new beginning, and reiterated Government of Indiaâs commitment to utilize Indiaâs water exclusively for the benefit of its citizens.
âIndia's water will now flow within India and remain in India. With the termination of Indus Water treaty, we now have full control over the Jhelum and Chenab rivers, he said further adding that the termination of IWT will ensure immense benefit to J&K, which will be able to harness its real hydro power potential, the barren areas of Jammu can be irrigated and there will be new momentum in the development of infrastructure in Jammu Kashmir. He said India will now create infrastructure, power plants and diversion to new areas with proper infrastructure to use the water and it will enable construction of new reservoirs.
The Lieutenant Governor citing the debate in Parliament in November 1960 and statements of prominent leaders in the house also observed that Indus Water Treaty was a historical mistake, unfair, one-sided and hampered infrastructure development in Jammu Kashmir and restricted growth of development projects.
On the occasion, the Lieutenant Governor also paid tribute to the civilians who were martyred in the Pakistan sponsored terrorist attack in Pahalgam. He also reiterated his resolve to honor and deliver justice to the terror victims of Jammu Kashmir. âNo Terror Victim Families will be left behind. It is being ensured that Family members, who have been waiting for justice for decades, will receive jobs, financial assistance and necessary handholding. Their culprits will not be spared. The properties of terror victims which were encroached by terrorists or terror sympathisers will be vacated soon,â the Lieutenant Governor said.
