The Indian Express reports that Pakistan has not asked the arbitral tribunal constituted under the Indus Water Treaty for an interim stay on the construction of the hydropower project in the Kishanganga river (a tributary of River Jhelum). In the last post on this issue, we had taken note of another Indian Express report that Pakistan might ask for an interim stay on the construction activities in the river. However, during the first hearing (preliminary hearing) on the matter, Pakistan had reportedly surprised the Indian side by not asking for an interim stay. The newsreport of the Indian Express can be accessed from here. Previous posts in this blog on this topic can be found here.
