Trial by Water: Indus Basin and India-Pakistan Relations

By Uttam Kumar Sinha

This book analyses how the Indus Water Treaty has been at the center of the turbulent relationship between India and Pakistan. Through history, political dynamics and the roles of key leaders, it explores the evolution and workings of one of the world's most crucial transboundary water agreements. The Indus Basin is a witness to conflict, compromise and survival. If you seek to understand the true pulse of India-Pakistan relations, start with the rivers that bind them. The answers, like the Indus itself, run deeper than they appear.
