Jaishankar used his address at the UN General Assembly to respond sharply to Pakistan's Prime Minister on the subject of cross-border terrorism, and to reiterate India's position on the Indus Waters Treaty.
India has previously kept the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty, brokered by the World Bank, "in abeyance" citing cross-border terrorism concerns.
The exchange took place during the UNGA's 81st session in New York.

GS-II International Relations: India's use of multilateral forums like the UNGA to respond to Pakistan on cross-border terrorism reflects a broader linkage between security concerns and bilateral treaty obligations. The Indus Waters Treaty's abeyance signals India's shift toward using treaty leverage as a policy instrument, raising questions about the future of India-Pakistan water-sharing diplomacy and World Bank-mediated frameworks.
