The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on Friday firmly rebuffed Pakistan's assertions at the ASEAN Regional Forum and reiterated that India's stand on the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) remains unaltered, asserting that the pact will stay in abeyance until Islamabad "irrevocably and credibly" halts its backing of cross-border terrorism.
The MEA also brushed aside Pakistan's allegations regarding India intentionally causing flooding across the border, terming the assertions "baseless" and attributing the rise in the Chenab river's water level entirely to heavy monsoon precipitation.
