Any unilateral attempt to undermine this internationally recognised agreement is neither as simple nor as acceptable as India may assume."

He said international commitments could not be set aside through unilateral decisions or political ambitions.

"Pakistan stands firm and is fully capable of defending its rightful share of water while continuing to uphold the principles of justice, cooperation, and the global vision of 'One Water–One Vision'," he added.
