While I support tough action against terrorism, I hope the Indus Water Treaty decision won't negatively impact ordinary citizens on both sides of the border. Water is a basic human need.

The timing is interesting - right after successful J&K elections. Shows terrorists can't stand peace and development in the region. Stay strong Kashmir! ✊

My heart goes out to the families who lost loved ones in Pahalgam. No political solution can bring back lives, but I hope justice is served swiftly.
