💨 Abstract

The Indian government stated that it only releases water from the Sutlej and Beas rivers to Pakistan during the monsoon season in rare cases. This is in accordance with the Indus Waters Treaty of 1960, where India controls these rivers while Pakistan manages others. The release of water occurs when heavy rainfall leads to increased levels in reservoirs, and it may be necessary for dam safety.
