Ties with India to 'depend' on Ganges Water Treaty, says BNP | All about the pact with Bangladesh

Bangladesh's ties with India will depend on the Ganges water treaty, with the country's Nationalist Party stating that a new treaty must be implemented immediately through discussions according to Bangladesh's expectations and needs. The treaty, signed in 1996, established a water-sharing arrangement between India and Bangladesh, governing water sharing when river flows are low. Bangladesh's rights over the river water are set to be renewed in December 2026, a development that has sparked uncertainty and concerns about the treaty's renewal.
