Pakistan recently objected to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Jammu and Kashmir and laid the foundation stone for the construction of Ratle and Kwar hydroelectric projects on the Chenab river. Now the Government of India has reacted to this. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said on Thursday that Pakistan has no right to comment on PM Modi's visit to Jammu and Kashmir.
Has there been a change in India's stand on Pakistan? On this question, Bagchi said that our stand is very straight that there should be such an environment in which there is no terrorism, talks can take place only in such an environment. Our main issue has always been this, this is our legitimate demand... there is no change.
Prime Minister Modi visited Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday to attend a public event for the first time since the abrogation of Article 370 in August 2019. During this, PM Modi laid the foundation stone of the Ratle and Kwar hydroelectric projects. An 850 MW project will be constructed on the Chenab river in Kishtwar at a cost of about Rs 5,300 crore and a 540 MW Kwar hydroelectric project on the same river at a cost of over Rs 4,500 crore.
To this, Pakistan's Foreign Ministry said, "Pakistan has objected to the construction of the Ratel hydroelectric power plant designed by India, and India has not yet fulfilled its treaty obligation to share information with Pakistan for the Kwar hydroelectric power plant." " The Foreign Office said, "Pakistan views the laying of the foundation stone of the two projects by the Indian Prime Minister as a direct violation of the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) of 1960."
The Indus Water Treaty of 1960 was signed by the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and the President of Pakistan Ayub Khan, mediated by the World Bank. This treaty is related to the use of the water of the Indus River and its tributaries flowing in both countries.
