'भारत की वजह से नहीं आई बाढ़': पाकिस्तान के आरोपों को MEA ने बताया झूठ, चीन को भी सुनाई खरी-खरी

According to a report by Amar Ujala, the Indian Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has formally rejected allegations from Pakistan suggesting that India is responsible for recent flooding in the region. The MEA, represented by spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal, characterized these claims as baseless and factually incorrect, maintaining that India’s water management practices remain in accordance with existing international agreements, specifically the Indus Waters Treaty.

In addition to addressing the claims from Islamabad, the report indicates that the Indian government also issued a firm response regarding China's activities in disputed border areas. New Delhi reiterated its stance on territorial sovereignty, dismissing external criticisms concerning infrastructure development and administrative actions in regions currently under Indian jurisdiction. The MEA emphasized that such developments are internal matters and are conducted within the country's own sovereign territory.

The exchange highlights the ongoing diplomatic tensions between India and its neighbors, particularly regarding transboundary water sharing and border management. Pakistan has frequently raised concerns over water flow, often citing climate-related disasters as evidence of mismanagement by upstream neighbors, a claim India consistently denies. The MEA’s latest statement serves as a reiteration of India's long-standing policy to prioritize bilateral treaties while rejecting what it terms as politically motivated narratives from regional counterparts.
