Blood will flow if India stops Indus water, warns PPP chief Bilawal Bhutto
The Island
|April 28, 2025
In a sharp response to India's decision to suspend the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) after the Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) on April 22, Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has threatened that blood will flow in rivers if water is stopped.
"The Indus is ours and will remain ours either our water will flow through it, or their blood," the former foreign minister was quoted as saying by The News on Friday while addressing a public rally in the Sukkur area of his home Sindh province.
The Indus flows through the province, and the Indus Valley Civilisation city of Mohenjo-Daro flourished on its banks.
Bhutto said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has claimed India is heir to a civilisation thousands of years old.
"But that civilisation lies in Mohenjo-daro, in Larkana.
