India's water for country's interest: PM
The New Indian Express Thrissur
|May 07, 2025
PRIME Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said earlier even the water which rightfully belonged to India went outside the country but it will now flow for India's benefit and will be utilised for the country.
"Now, India's water will flow in the interest of India, will stay in the interest of India and will be used for India only," Modi said amid heightened tensions between India and Pakistan following the recent terror attack in Pahalgam.
His remarks came as Pakistan issued warnings following India's suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty. Addressing a gathering at a media house summit here, the PM highlighted growing public and media discourse around the issue of water, reiterating India's stance in the backdrop of the Indus Waters Treaty suspension.
