(PTI) As India placed the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) in abeyance in April 2025 following the Pahalgam attack, it has shifted from a policy of “restraint” to one of “strategic execution”. By treating the treaty as suspended, India is no longer following data-sharing or prior-notification requirements with Pakistan for new or existing projects on the Chenab River. What is the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT)? The IWT is a landmark water-sharing agreement signed on September 19, 1960 between India and Pakistan, brokered by the World Bank. It established a framework for managing and distributing the waters of the Indus River system, which has remained largely functional despite decades of regional conflict.

Everton’s Appeal Against Premier League Points Deduction To Be Fast-Tracked

Team Everton in action© AFP The Premier League said on Monday a speeded-up, “expedited” process will be put in place after Everton appealed against a two-point penalty imposed on the club for breaching financial regulations. Everton admitted breaching profitability and sustainability rules (PSR) for permitted losses by 16.6 million pounds ($20.7 million) for the assessment period ending with the 2022/23 season.
