India’s Home Minister Amit Shah says the Indus Waters Treaty with Pakistan "will never be restored," accusing Islamabad of violating the agreement.
Speaking to the Times of India, Shah said the treaty was suspended after the April 22 attack in Pahalgam, where 26 people—mostly Indian tourists—were killed in Indian-administered Kashmir. India blamed “cross-border links,” a charge Pakistan denied.

Pakistan's Foreign Ministry condemned the remarks, calling India’s move a violation of international law. Spokesman Shafqat Ali Khan said the treaty is a binding international agreement that cannot be altered unilaterally and warned that Islamabad will take all necessary steps to defend its rights.
