Pak to voice concern over Kishanganga dam with WB
May 21, 2018

Pakistan will raise its concern with the World Bank today over inauguration of the Kishanganga hydro-power project by India.

Pakistan argues that construction of the dam violates the 1960 Indus Water Treaty between Pakistan and India.

A high level Pakistan delegation is in Washington for talks with World Bank officials on the issue.

During the three day talks, key points including height of the dam, its capacity of water storing and Pakistan's demand for setting up a court of arbitration to settle the dispute will be discussed.
