Will Strike Any Structure Built To Divert Indus Water Says Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja Asif

New Delhi: Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said any structure built by India to divert the country’s share of water under the Indus treaty would be destroyed as he continued with his warmongering tactics amid heightened tensions.

India suspended the Indus Waters Treaty, which ensures water for 80% of Pakistani agricultural land, hours after the Pahalgam terror attack. The Pakistani minister, who has made a string of provocative remarks, reiterated that any diversion of Pakistan’s waters would be seen as a “face of aggression”.

When asked about Pakistan’s reaction if India moves to construct dams on the Indus basin, Asif said, “That will be aggression against Pakistan… even if they (India) made an architectural attempt of this kind, then Pakistan will destroy that structure.”
