Claim

The Indus Water Treaty was concluded in 1960; under it Pakistan receives the waters of the Indus, Jhelum and Chenab rivers, while India got rights over the Ravi, Beas and Sutlej rivers.

“यह वर्ष 1960 में हुआ था और इसके तहत पाकिस्तान को सिंधु, झेलम और चेनाब नदी का पानी मिल रहा है। जबकि रावी, ब्यास और सतलुज नदी का अधिकार भारत को मिला।”

Rationale

The Indus Waters Treaty was signed on 19 September 1960 between India and Pakistan (brokered by the World Bank). It allocated the three western rivers — Indus, Jhelum and Chenab — to Pakistan, and the three eastern rivers — Ravi, Beas and Sutlej — to India, exactly as stated. Both the year and the river allocation in the claim match primary treaty text and multiple authoritative sources.
