India has expelled Pakistani nationals and suspended the Indus Waters Treaty.
A major escalation. Pakistani officials have said that suspending the treaty would amount to an act of war.
Remember: India-Pakistan tensions have the potential to cause sectarian conflict in the UK. https://t.co/gKeYJoid1T

The Indus Waters Treaty is an important water-sharing treaty between India and Pakistan that was agreed upon in September 1960 after decades of talks, with the World Bank acting as a mediator. The treaty was signed in Karachi by Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and Pakistan\’s then-head of state, General Ayub Khan.
Notwithstanding the decades-long political strains, conflicts, and disagreements, the treaty has endured for more than 62 years. It is celebrated as one of the most successful pacts between the two countries. It was once referred to by former Indian Water Resources Minister Saifuddin Soz as the most significant agreement in their history.

Indian government has demanded all Pakistani nationals leave the country within 24 hours.
