#IndusWaterTreaty 🚨 Major Announcement!
The Modi government unveils plans for a 113 km historic canal to divert Indus waters to Punjab, Haryana, and Rajasthan — a bold move set to tackle the recurring summer water crisis in these states.
🌊 Key Highlights:
The new canal will connect Chenab to the Ravi-Beas-Sutlej river system.
Indus waters will reach Sri Ganganagar (Rajasthan) via an extended canal network — target completion in 3 years.
The long-stalled Ujh Multipurpose Project in Kathua (J&K) is being revived to serve hydropower, irrigation, and drinking water needs.
🔥 A strategic step towards water self-reliance and optimizing India's share under the Indus Water Treaty.
