India cuts off water supply, Pakistan issues a warning, if Modi dares to set this precedent, don't blame China for treating India the same way.
Pakistan's Prime Minister's aide recently issued a warning, stating that if the Modi government intends to tear up the Indus Waters Treaty and cut off water supplies as a threat to Pakistan, disrupting the harmony of sharing water resources between upstream and downstream countries, then it is possible that China could "retaliate in kind" against India. It should be noted that there is an official water resource agreement between India and Pakistan, while no such agreement exists between China and India.
Once such a situation occurs, it would be no different from a "total war," where both sides will stop at nothing to achieve victory.
Pakistan's message is clear: as long as Modi dares to set this precedent, India must not cry foul on the international stage when it is treated with the same means in the future. The cost of such an action is something India cannot afford. Before cutting off the water flow, they had better weigh the consequences carefully.
