India suspended the Indus Water Treaty after the heinous April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, and now the Indian government has devised a complete plan which would bring Pakistan to its knees in the coming months, if not days. As per reports, Pakistan is already facing water troubles in the Kharif season due to low water levels in its dams fueled by the Indus River, but the situation is about to get worse at the Narendra Modi government has foolproof plans are in place in to restrict water from the Indus, Sutlej and Beas rivers to the enemy country. How India plans to use water to destroy Pakistan?
According to reports, the Indian government plans to optimize the use of the Indus river system through inter-basin water transfer, which includes the construction of a 113-km-long canal to divert excess water from Jammu and Kashmir to Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan.
Additionally, the strategy also involves flushing and desilting of reservoirs at two run-of-the-river hydropower facilities on the Chenab River – Baglihar and Salal, while long-term plans includes accelerating ongoing hydropower projects such as Pakal Dul (1,000 MW), Ratle (850 MW), Kiru (624 MW) and Kwar (540 MW) to utilize more water from the Indus River system.
Apart from short-term initiatives, India is also working on a comprehensive plan for inter-basin water transfer, starting with a feasibility assessment for a 113-km-long canal to redirect excess water from Jammu and Kashmir to Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan, according to a report by the Times of India.
The proposed canal will link Chenab with Ravi-Beas-Sutlej, ensuring optimum utilization of the eastern rivers (Ravi, Beas and Sutlej), and also enable India to completely utilize its allotted share of the western rivers (Indus, Jhelum and Chenab) under the Indus Water Treaty, prevent the flow of excess water to Pakistan, the report said.
As per the TOI report, the proposed Chenab-Ravi-Beas-Sutlej link will be integrated with existing canal infrastructure at 13 points in Jammu, Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan, eventually connecting with the Indira Gandhi Canal (Sutlej-Beas). Recently, Home Minister Amit Shah announced Indus river water will reach Sri Ganganagar in Rajasthan through canals 'within three years', which will benefit vast agricultural areas, while limiting Indus water access to Pakistan. Ranbir Canal to be doubled in length
According to the reports, there is also a proposal to double the existing length of the Ranbir Canal, from 60 km to 120 km, which draws water from the Chenab River, while a feasibility report is awaited to utilize the Pratap Canal to its full potential, according to officials.
Further, there are also plans to restart the Ujh multipurpose project in Jammu and Kashmir's Kathua district, which includes hydropower generation, irrigation, and providing drinking water, and is aimed at maximizing India's share of water from the Eastern Rivers under the Indus Waters Treaty.
The plan involves integrating the Ravi-Beas connection below Ujh– which was earlier purposed to collect surplus water flowing to Pakistan through the Ravi through barrage construction– into the broader inter-basin water transfer initiative, enabling diversion of water into Beas basin via a tunnel, as per the TOI report. Water reaches 'dead' level in Pakistani rivers
The effects of India's measures to curb Indus waters is already being seen in Pakistan's rivers, many of which are witnessing 'dead' levels as western rivers flowing through India, including the Indus, Chenab, and Jhelum, have depleted considerably.
Pakistan has been forced to release more water from its dams to meet its irrigation and drinking water needs, and while this is common in the pre-monsoon season, the situation could worsen in coming days as India India regularly desilts and drains water from dams in Jammu and Kashmir to increase storage capacity.
According to reports, water levels in key dams in Pakistan, including the Mangla on the Jhelum river and Tarbela on the Indus river – have already reached close to their respective 'dead levels' (the point beyond which gravity cannot drain water from reservoirs) ahead of monsoon, which likely to reach Pakistan in a month. What options does Pakistan have?
Realistically, Pakistan is quickly running out of options as further reduction in water flow from the Indian side will leave the enemy country with tough choices to facilitate agricultural operations before monsoon arrives. While conditions are expected to improve upon the arrival of monsoon in Pakistan next month, yet authorities will face a major challenge to manage regular water discharge without water flow data from India after the suspension of the Indus Water Treaty.
Notably, Pakistan has written four letters to India, pleading New Delhi to restore the Indus Water Treaty. However, India has clearly stated the treaty will continue to be held in abeyance till Pakistan takes visible, concrete action against terrorism.

The meeting also signified the fact that the Pakistani military call the shots in the neighbouring country. advertisement"I don't have a great opinion on this (Trump-Munir meeting). It is surprising to me. It must be an embarrassment to any country that the military chief gets invited and the prime minister is nowhere to be seen. It's a very strange thing," he told news agency ANI in a podcast. Wednesday's meeting between Trump and Munir featured Lt Gen Asim Malik, who also serves as Pakistan's national security advisor, and no other leader from the civilian government was present. This was the first such meeting between a high-ranking Pakistani military chief and a sitting US President since India's Operation to the White House, Trump hosted Munir after he backed the US President to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for preventing what could have become a nuclear war between India and Trump has claimed several times that he brokered a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, New Delhi has maintained that the Director General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of both countries agreed to an understanding ceasing all military hostilities and no third party was involved in before the Trump-Munir meeting, Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a 35-minute phone call with Trump to firmly clarify that the ceasefire following the May 7-10 military standoff had been achieved through direct communication between the Indian and Pakistani militaries - not through any external Singh said, "I have always found it strange that this gentleman sits on something called an investment facilitation council in Pakistan, which takes economic decisions. It's a weird, structurally imbalanced state where the military essentially has first claim on resources."The Defence Secretary underlined that India should continue to establish some level of deterrence towards between the arch-rivals nosedived following the Pahalgam terror attack, India's diplomatic measures against Pakistan, including the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, and the four-day conflict between the nuclear-armed Delhi has made it clear that terror and talks cannot go together and has repeatedly flagged Islamabad's support for terror outfits operating on its soil and launching cross-border Watch IN THIS STORY#Donald Trump#Pakistan#India-Pakistan

AIFF President Kalyan Chaubey hits back at Bhutia, urges unity in football row

AIFF President Kalyan Chaubey has officially responded to former India captain Bhaichung Bhutia's scathing criticism of the All India Football Federation, urging a shift from public attacks to constructive collaboration. Bhutia had recently launched a blistering attack on the AIFF, accusing the federation of mismanagement, corruption, and lack of footballing vision under Chaubey's a statement released by the AIFF, Chaubey reaffirmed the federation's commitment to unity and follow two slogans – 'football unites the world' and 'Indian football, forward together'. These slogans reflect our shared vision, and I firmly believe that by working together, we can take Indian football to greater heights,' the statement read. Bhutia had previously questioned Chaubey's footballing credentials and leadership, going as far as to accuse him of prioritising politics over performance.'I didn't see Kalyan playing much in the national team. He was the third or fourth goalkeeper He has given more attention to politics than playing,' Bhutia said during a press conference in his response, Chaubey acknowledged Bhutia's right to free speech but criticised his repeated public outbursts since losing the AIFF presidential election in September 2022.'We live in a democratic country where every citizen has the constitutional right to freedom of speech. As a member of the AIFF Executive Committee, Mr. Bhaichung Bhutia has access to an appropriate and empowered platform to express his views, raise concerns, and contribute constructively,' the statement has been observed that since Mr. Bhaichung Bhutia's defeat in the September 2022 elections, he has consistently and deliberately made baseless allegations and presented a distorted image of the AIFF. Such actions not only tarnish the reputation of the Federation but also throw Indian football in a negative light on international platforms.'Bhutia had earlier described the AIFF as a 'circus' and called for Chaubey's resignation.'Kalyan Chaubey has destroyed Indian football. He must resign. He has completely ruined it,' Bhutia also questioned the decision-making within the AIFF, raising issues with coach appointments, failed Asia Cup campaigns, and administrative opacity.'There's absolutely nothing happening at the grassroots level. All we hear is negative news from the top, and that's reflecting in the results,' Bhutia in turn, claimed that Bhutia has not used his position in the Executive Committee to offer tangible solutions.'It is unfortunate that in most Executive Committee meetings, his contributions have primarily centred around opposing decisions made collectively by the entire board, rather than offering substantial proposals,' the AIFF president the ongoing tensions, Chaubey extended an invitation to Bhutia to attend the upcoming AIFF Executive Committee meeting on July 2, Bhutia is most welcome to participate... He is encouraged to present any constructive proposals during the meeting, which will be duly deliberated upon by the entire executive board in the spirit of transparency, collaboration, and the collective development of Indian football,' the statement had also raised concerns over the I-League title dispute, the hasty return of Sunil Chhetri from retirement, and alleged irregularities in the federation's international dealings, including a failed Asia Cup hosting bid and the nature of its agreement with Saudi Indian football continues to struggle on and off the pitch—with defeats like the one to Hong Kong, a slip in FIFA rankings, and confusion around the coaching setup—this public rift between two of the sport's prominent figures has only intensified the spotlight on the federation's direction. The July 2 meeting now holds added significance for the future course of Indian football.
