After winning battle they still have doubts or they just read fine prints.
Now Moron Singh should give this as another gift to his brothers in Pakistan.

<b>Mudy Ji :</b>

From the IWT :

Article IX

Settlement of Differences and Disputes

Any question which arises between the Parties concerning the interpretation or application of this Treaty or the existence of any fact which, if established, might constitute a breach of this Treaty shall first be examined by the Commission, which will endeavor to resolve the question by agreement.

<b>If the Commission does not reach agreement on any of the questions mentioned in the Paragraph (1), then a difference will be deemed to have arisen, which shall be dealt with by a Neutral Expert. If the Neutral Expert has informed the Commission that, in his opinion, the difference should be treated as a dispute, then a dispute will be deemed to have arisen.</b>

As soon as a dispute to be settled has arisen, the Commission shall, at the request of either Commissioner, report the fact to the two Governments, as early as practicable, stating in its report the points on which the Commission is in agreement and the issues in dispute, the views of each Commissioner on these issues and his reasons thereof.

Either Government may, following receipt of the report, or if it comes to the conclusion that this report is being unduly delayed in the Commission, invite the other Government to resolve the dispute by agreement.

<b>A court of Arbitration shall be established to resolve the dispute.</b>

<b>Mudy Ji :</b> One will have to wait and find out if the Neutral Expert i.e. Prof. Lafitte decides that the differences are to be considered as a dispute.

Should he not do so then the Pakistanis have no leg to stand on.

One can appreciate your “distaste” – putting it mildly – for Manmohan Singh but it would be impossible to give any gifts to the Pakistanis for the simple reason if that was the case then India would have agree to the “suggestions” made by the Pakistanis – many moons ago

India has been humouring the Pakistanis and handing out CBMs galore but comes there a time when one has to say “Enough is Enough”.

To it add “A Man’s gotta Do what a Man’s gotta Do”
