**NEW DELHI** – India is undertaking the construction of two large-scale water storage facilities capable of holding the entirety of its share of Indus River water, according to AK Bajaj, former Indian Commissioner for Indus Waters. This development comes amidst an indefinite suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty with Pakistan. Bajaj, in an interview with NDTV, stated that the new infrastructure represents a significant strategic move by India to ensure its water security in the face of the ongoing treaty dispute. Further details regarding the location and capacity of the facilities were not immediately available. The move is likely to further strain already tense relations between India and Pakistan.
