India to ask World Bank neutral expert to pause Kishanganga-Ratle proceedings under Indus Waters Treaty

India plans to halt the ongoing Kishanganga-Ratle hydel project dispute resolution. They will ask the World Bank-appointed neutral expert to pause the proceedings. This follows India's decision to put the Indus Waters Treaty in 'abeyance'. A mutually agreed work program between India, Pakistan, and the neutral expert is likely to be paused.
