| No water for Pakistan | | | The completion of Ujj multipurpose and Shahpur Kandi projects over the Ravi River in Kathua district could prove to be the last nail in Pakistan's coffin.
Union Minister for Jan Shakti Gajendra Singh Shekhawat recently stated that Pakistan would scream for water after completion of these projects.
Soon after the Pulwama terror attack, which left 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel dead in February last year, the Government of India had announced slew of measures to deal with Pakistan sponsored terrorism.
To stop water flowing into Pakistan from the rivers originating from India was one of the decisions which the GoI had taken.
The work on Shahpur Kandi barrage has been going on for many years but the successive regimes allowed work to continue at snail's pace. The work on Shahpur barrage and Ujj projects was expedited after the Prime Minister Narendra Modi intervened personally and pulled up the executing agencies for not being able to complete the work on these important projects.
Since the day Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken over the reins of the country there has been a tactical change in India's policy towards Pakistan and terror. India has stopped being apologetic and soft. The policy of GoI is clear that talks and terror cannot go together. Stopping flow of water to Pakistan will leave the neighbouring country high and dry. This will make the rulers sitting there realize that New India is tough to deal with and Pakistan has to shun its old policies if it wants to survive as an independent country.
The Pakistani leaders have still sometime left as the steps being taken by the Government of India to curb terrorism can lead to the neighbouring country being left with nowhere to go.
The terrorists which Pakistan has been nurturing in its backyard for the past three decades need to be reined in. The terror training camps need to be shut. If Pakistan fails to do so then it will have to get water from somewhere else as the India is determined to teach its rogue neighbor a lesson.
The stern measures being taken by the GoI is clear message to Pakistan Army and the ISI, that they cannot fight the proxy war in Jammu and Kashmir anymore and if they want to continue with it their country will have to pay a heavy price for it as the GoI seems very serious about stopping waters flowing into Pakistan. |
