What's going on with Indus Treaty Dispute

India's UNSC ambassador Harish Parvathaneni accused Pakistan of suppressing basic rights and fundamental freedoms of Kashmiris in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir.

Parvathaneni stated that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India and the only outstanding issue is Pakistan's illegal occupation.

He cited the incarceration of a former Prime Minister, outlawing of the main opposition party, and the military's 27th Amendment as evidence of repression across Pakistan.

Parvathaneni criticized Pakistan's use of fabricated narratives to mislead the UN membership.

Pakistan's attempt to gain advantage under the Indus Waters Treaty backfired.

Pakistan is required to pay India's arbitration bill due to the treaty's cost-sharing clause.

The Indus Waters Treaty mandates equal sharing of arbitration costs between India and Pakistan.

Pakistan is paying both its own and India's share of arbitration costs in the Indus Waters Treaty dispute after India boycotted proceedings.

Pakistan has spent over $600,000 to keep the arbitration process alive at the Permanent Court of Arbitration.

The arbitration was initiated by Pakistan against India under the Indus Waters Treaty.

Pakistan is reportedly paying over $600,000 in legal costs after India refused to participate in Indus Waters Treaty arbitration proceedings.

India placed the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance following the Pahalgam terror attack and rejected the jurisdiction of the Court of Arbitration over the Kishenganga and Ratle hydropower disputes.

Pakistan continued with the arbitration process alone, resulting in Islamabad footing legal expenses for both sides.

The decision to proceed with arbitration has become a costly setback for Pakistan, as it now pays not only its own legal fees but also India's share of the costs.

India has decided that the Indus Waters Treaty will not function in its present form.

India would consider renegotiation only if Pakistan takes credible anti-terrorism steps.

Sources indicate Pakistan's 'victim card' on the treaty will not change India's stance.
