Pakistan halts controversial Sindh canal project on Indus river

Islamabad, Apr 25 (UNI) Following India’s suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty -- after the Pahalgam terror attack -- that could affect the flow of Indus waters in Sindh province, the Pakistan government has halted its controversial canal project in Sindh.
The announcement was made by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari after a meeting between the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and the PPP delegations at the Prime Minister House, reports Express Tribune.
The decision has ended several days of ongoing political tussle between the two political allies, which had earlier heated up to the point of hostility.
