Breaking: Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif Warns India Over Water, Threatens ‘Serious Consequences’

In a fresh escalation of rhetoric, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has issued a sharp warning to India over water-sharing disputes. Speaking at a public address, Sharif stated that if India attempts to block “even a single drop” of Pakistan’s rightful share of water, it will face “serious consequences.” He stressed that Pakistan will not tolerate any obstruction of water flow, reiterating that India “cannot stop a single drop” under existing agreements.This statement comes amid long-standing tensions between the two countries over river water allocations governed by the Indus Waters Treaty. Sharif’s remarks are being seen as yet another verbal attack in the backdrop of already strained bilateral relations, with no signs of dialogue resuming anytime soon. While no official Indian response has been released yet, New Delhi has historically maintained that it adheres to the treaty’s terms.The warning has attracted attention in both countries, with analysts noting that such rhetoric is often politically motivated and may be aimed at Pakistan’s domestic audience. However, given the sensitive nature of water resources in the region, the statement adds to the ongoing hostility between the two nuclear-armed neighbors.
