Maximum use of water of Pakistan-controlled rivers

> PM Modi and officials discussed ways to increase exploitation of the Chenab, Jhelum and Indus rivers that flows into Pakistan. > But said they would not violate the Indus Water Treaty between the countries in the process. > India will accelerate its building of new hydropower plants along three rivers that flow into Pakistan. > The Indus Water Treaty was signed in 1960 in a bid to resolve disputes. > But India’s ambitious irrigation plans and construction of thousands of upstream dams has continued to annoy Pakistan. > Pakistan depends on snowfed Himalayan rivers for everything from drinking water to agriculture. > India says its use of upstream water is strictly in line with the 1960 agreement.
