ISLAMABAD, May 21 (TNS): Pakistan will raise its concern with the World Bank Monday over the inauguration of the Kishanganga hydropower project by India.
Pakistan argues that construction of the dam violates the 1960 Indus Water Treaty between Pakistan and India.
A high-level Pakistan delegation is in Washington for talks with World Bank officials on the issue.
During the three day talks, key points including the height of the dam, its capacity of water storing and Pakistan’s demand for setting up a court of arbitration to settle the dispute will be discussed.
