This treaty is for an indefinite period and is a binding.

Moreover there is also an arbitration mechanism provided in Indus Water Treaty to resolve the disputes within its mechanism.

He said according to international law and provisions of IWT India cannot unilaterally revoke the treaty as it will not only undermine India’s international standing but also pertain to considerable risk of war and hostilities.

Such an Indian act may also provide China with a justification to consider suspension of water of Indian river Brahmaputra.

India has already damaged its credentials by even considering revocation of IWT and disrupting water flow into Pakistan.
