High Alert in Jammu: Security Increased, Focus on Sensitive Areas, India Cuts Water Flow to Pakistan's Chenab River

In a significant development, Jammu district has been placed on high alert, with heightened security measures across the region. The Jammu Kashmir police have received instructions to increase their deployment, particularly around sensitive buildings and prisons. All check posts in the city have been instructed to enhance security. This comes in the wake of escalating tensions, including India's recent decision to stop water flow from the Chenab River, following the abrogation of the Indus Waters Treaty. By closing the gates of the Baglihar Dam, India has reduced the water level in the Chenab River, effectively curbing the flow of water into Pakistan by 90%. This strategic move is seen as a major action by India after the Pahalgam terror attack, with plans reportedly in progress to take similar steps regarding the Kishanganga Dam. The reduction in water levels is expected to impact Pakistan's agriculture and environment, increasing pressure on the nation.
