How much has it benefited Pakistan and have there been any problems because of it. Please give examples. Thanks. :)
 
. .
Got more water than India its literally an unfair treaty which benefits Pakistan greatly.
 
.
Unfair treaty which gives Pakistan 80% of the water instead of the UN mandated 50% in general for two countries sharing a river system.

Since it's an unfair treaty in favour of Pakistan, it's survived.
 
.
IWT was a carrot shown to Pakistan so that in any future Sino-Indian war, Pakistan don't open another front.

But now since Indian army is preparing and already expecting two front war, IWT is redundant, not completely but the part which favors Pakistan most.

The indus and it's West rivers tributaries flows through only disputed
territoryof iok on indian side
While through 3 out of our 4 provinces so if want to put up 50% un sharing then also bring up UN resolution on Kashmir where your own pm Nehru took the case
 
. . .
Sure. Please withdraw from Pak occupied Kashmir then.
Do you really think that any Pakistani will abide by UN withdrawal first condition for Pak then plebicite under Indian forces :p:

Every Pakistani will interpret a different meaning of this UN condition

The army withdrawal is mutual if he talking bout Pak national tibals about which the resolution asked for they have been long withdrawn :)

I think you should actually read what the UNSC resolution says.

It told Pak to withdraw completely and India should maintain troop concentration that cannot conduct offensive operations.

Then it's not a surprise that plebiscite wasn't conducted. Don't forget that the UNSC made this call, not India.

Plus, Nehru made a bad decision by stopping the battle midway. He should have at least let the army push to the IB in Kashmir.

I have read it calls for removal of the tribal fighters which was done :)

The first wave we're tribal volunteer from Kpk fata region that pushed out dogra Raj forces with support of local kashmiri and gb freedom fighters
When Indian army intervened so did Pak army as a response

Hi guys , You have 6 times more water flowing in sea than you use. Learn to manage water rather than lying and blaming India about treaty violation. We have not violated any treaty and we are only taking the water which of our share.
