India rejects Hague ruling upholding Indus Waters Treaty

India has rejected a Hague-based arbitration court's ruling that the Indus Waters Treaty remains in force, signaling a potential escalation in the long-running water-sharing dispute with Pakistan. The rejection marks a deviation from India's previous adherence to the treaty framework, raising uncertainty over future water flows and regional stability. The move could strain bilateral relations and has implications for water security in the Indus basin.
