SIALKOT (Dunya News) – The historical ‘Indus Waters Treaty’ has once again been violated by India as water supply has been stopped at Baglihar Dam.

According to the reports, Chenab River is left with only six thousand, sixty-seven cusecs water while 55 percent of the river part has dried up.

The Marala - Ravi Link Canal, flowing at the Head Marala part of River Chenab, has totally shutdown which is drying up the river rapidly.

It is to reiterate here that India is bound to open 55,000 cusecs water in River Chenab according to Indus Waters Treaty.
