Pakistan is staring at a water disaster as India holds the Indus Waters Treaty of 1960 in abeyance.
The flow of water from rivers like Chenab and Jhelum has plummeted, with Punjab province the worst affected.
Water availability in the Indus system is down by over 10%, raising alarm for the approaching kharif season.
Pakistan's key dams—Tarbela and Mangla—are also below optimal levels.
The crisis follows India’s suspension of the treaty after the Pahalgam terror attack, and Pakistan has warned that blocking water flow could be considered an "act of war."
