flag A World Bank-appointed neutral expert has ruled in favor of India in a dispute over two hydroelectric projects, Kishenganga and Ratle, in Jammu and Kashmir. flag The decision supports India's position that the neutral expert has the sole authority to resolve issues under the 1960 Indus Water Treaty, which allocates river usage between India and Pakistan. flag Pakistan had objected to the projects, but the ruling marks a setback for their concerns and an affirmation of India's stance on the treaty.
