NEW DELHI: The ministry of external affairs justified India's decision to place the Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance, citing Pakistan 's breach of principles guiding the agreement in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack.
Briefing the parliamentary committee, foreign secretary Vikram Misri noted that the neighbouring nation effectively set aside the principles of "goodwill and friendship" enshrined in the 1960 treaty's preamble.
BJP slammed Jairam Ramesh for calling the NITI Aayog an "Ayogya" (unfit) body, saying such remarks will only create controversy and harm the Congress party itself.
