Indus Water Treaty suspension: 'Have no role to play beyond facilitator', says World Bank president Ajay Banga
World Bank president Ajay Banga on Friday (May 9) shared his views on the Indus water treaty suspension, which was suspended by India, following the killing of 26 people, mostly tourists, in a terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam on April 22 (Tuesday). Ajay Banga said, "We have no role to play beyond a facilitator. There’s a lot of speculation in the media about how the World Bank will step in and fix the problem, but it’s all bunk. The World Bank’s role is merely as a facilitator."
