Srinagar: Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday said the Indus Water Treaty (IWT) was an abomination and should never have gone through, but the NDA government was not going to scrap it, a day after Centre hinted at revisiting the pact with Pakistan if it does not act against terror.
"It (IWT) was an abomination and should never have gone through. J-K has suffered long on its account but this government isn't going to scrap it," Omar tweeted.
"Will stick my neck out and say that nothing will happen to the Indus Water Treaty. It survived 4 wars & a J-K assembly unanimous resolution," he said in another tweet.
India on Thursday made it clear that mutual trust and cooperation was important for such a treaty to work.
