'Bharat strikes back,' says CM Himanta

GUWAHATI: (Apr 24) Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Thursday said the decision to suspend the Indus Waters Treaty by India after the Pahalgam terror attack heralds a "new era of assertive diplomacy".

He said suspending the treaty is India striking back, as water security is aligned with national security.

Terrorists had struck a prime tourist location at Baisaran meadows near Pahalgam in south Kashmir on Tuesday, killing 26 people, mostly tourists.
