Pakistan-India Tensions: Bilawal Bhutto’s Peace Message After Strong Threats
Now, he has changed his words. Standing in Pakistan’s Parliament, he said peace is better.
New Delhi (Delhi) [India] May 6: Just a few days back, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, a top leader from Pakistan, spoke in anger. He said that if India stopped water from the Indus River, blood would flow instead. These words scared many and reminded people of old fights. But now, he has changed his words. Standing in Pakistan’s Parliament, he said peace is better. He asked India to come and talk like neighbours. People are surprised by this shift.
A Nation’s Past With Rivers and Rights
The Indus Waters Treaty was signed between India and Pakistan in 1960 with help from the World Bank. This deal gave Pakistan control of three rivers. Since then, it has helped both countries avoid major fights over water. But after a deadly attack in Jammu and Kashmir recently, India said it would suspend the deal. This made Pakistan upset. Bilawal then used strong words, which brought back memories of old tensions.
Peace Offer After a Deadly Attack
The peace words from Bilawal came just days after a terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, where many innocent lives were lost. India quickly blamed groups in Pakistan. Soon after, India closed the land border and reduced talks between diplomats. This made things very tense. But now, instead of more anger, Pakistan seems to want a calm talk. This change gives hope but also raises questions.
Social Media Blocks and Public Talks
After Bilawal’s angry words, the social media platform X (Twitter) blocked his account in India. The reason was his ‘blood in river’ statement. This made many people talk online. Some said strong words won’t help. Even Imran Khan’s account was blocked earlier. Now, Bilawal says Pakistan wants truth and peace. His voice sounds softer than before. Whether this change is real or not, people are watching closely.
Words Can Hurt or Heal
The people of both countries have seen many years of anger, war, and loss. From 1947 to now, there have been many times when leaders used angry words. Sometimes, these words led to bigger fights. But now, Bilawal’s latest speech sounds different. He asked for truth, peace, and open hands. Many people want this to be real and lasting. Time will tell if this new tone becomes the new normal or just a short break.
