Jammu: Omar Abdullah called the Indus Water Treaty a historic betrayal of the people of Jammu and Kashmir and said that this treaty does not give them the right to use their water resources.
Politics has heated up once again over the Indus Water Treaty. The Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir has called this treaty against the interests of the people of the state and said that it was a historic betrayal. He said that he has been opposing this treaty from the very beginning and will continue to oppose it in the future as well.
The Chief Minister said that in reality it is not unfortunate that I am opposing this treaty, but that some people accept this injustice in the desire to gain cheap popularity and to please the people sitting across the border.
The Indus Water Treaty has deprived the people of Jammu and Kashmir of their resources, especially water, this is injustice. This treaty has restricted us from using the water of our rivers. He stressed that opposition to the treaty was not a war-mongering mentality but rather an attempt to correct historical injustice.
