History

Historical Context

The Pahalgam terror attack in Kashmir, which killed 26 people, echoes historical tensions between India and Pakistan over Kashmir. The 1960 Indus Waters Treaty, established amid earlier conflicts, aimed to manage water resources but has faced strains during crises. India's suspension of the treaty highlights ongoing disputes, reminiscent of past retaliatory measures following violence, such as India's 2019 threats to cut water supply to Pakistan.
