After Indus treaty freeze, BJP MP calls for no water to Bangladesh

India: BJP MP Nishikant Dubey has called for a suspension of water supply to Bangladesh, following India’s decision to halt the Indus Waters Treaty after the deadly Pahalgam terror attack. The attack, which claimed 26 lives, prompted India to cut water supply to Pakistan, and now Dubey is urging similar action against Bangladesh. He cited the flawed 1996 Ganga water agreement between India and Bangladesh during Congress rule.

“The agreement for the waters of the Ganga was wrong, and it was a mistake made by the Congress government in 1996,” Dubey said. He questioned the logic of continuing to share water with countries allegedly linked to terrorism. “How long will we provide water to snakes? It’s time to crush them,” he added.

Dubey also expressed concern over security along India’s borders with both Pakistan and Bangladesh. He stressed the importance of securing these areas to prevent terrorist infiltration. He referred to reports of Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists being in constant contact with Bangladesh’s interim government.
