Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Friday castigated Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the threats he hurled at Pakistan and pledged that Islamabad would fight for every single drop of its water share from acknowledged joint water resources of the sub-continent.
According to a statement issued by the PPP, Mr Bhutto said, “Modi can deceive his own people through staking claim to what is not India’s, but Indus Water Treaty is clear. He cannot divert world’s attention from his brutal atrocities in held Kashmir by taking the already settled issues,”.
Bilawal Bhutto Zardari asked Modi to take care of the world’s stark poverty in his own country and stop throwing gimmicks and threats.
Earlier in the day, Modi said the water from Ravi, Beas and Sutlej rivers was India's by right and that it was not being used by the Indian farmers.
"India's water is flowing into Pakistan," he said. "This water is not reaching to the fields of Indian farmers," the Indian prime minister said.
He said the water that was flowing into Pakistan would be provided to Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Indian farmers.
"Water from all three rivers flows into the Pakistani sea," he said. Modi stated that Pakistan was still in shock after India's alleged surgical strikes and said that Islamabad knew now what the Indian army was capable of.
